Long-Term Care Courses
I sell Long Term Care products. How often do I need to complete a Long Term Care course*? 

Your Long-Term Care requirements are based on your overall continuing education (CE) requirements. During the first four years of being a licensed agent, you are required to complete twenty-five (25) continuing education hours per year.  Once, each year, you must complete a California Tax Qualified Long-Term* 8-hour course without duplicating courses during the same license term. If you are required to complete thirty (30) continuing education hours during each two-year license cycle, then you must complete one California Tax Qualified Long-Term* course during each license term.

All agents that sell Long-Term Care products, who are exempt from continuing education requirements (non-residents or SB 380 (Peace, Chapter 350, Statute of 1997)*, must complete a California Tax Qualified Long-Term* course once during each term.
