Examination Scheduling Services

PSI Services LLC (PSI), a California-based company providing state-based regulatory licensure services, handles the scheduling of examinations for individuals licensed by the California Department of Insurance's (Department) Producer Licensing Bureau. Instructions for scheduling examinations are posted on PSI's Examination Scheduling Service. Individuals may schedule their examinations with PSI either online or by telephone at (833) 518-7456.

PSI provides additional examination sites and other test development services for the Department for individuals to have more choices on the location and times for taking their examinations. To complement the Department examination site in Los Angeles, PSI offers 20 additional sites statewide where individuals may take their qualifying license examination and obtain the required fingerprints.

There is a $43 convenience fee to take an examination at the PSI locations. All PSI locations have free parking and are available for Saturday examinations in addition to Monday through Friday. Some PSI sites also have evening hours. Information about these additional locations is available on PSI's Examination Scheduling Service when individuals are in the process of scheduling their examination.

Remote Online Proctored License Examinations

PSI also provides license applicants with the option to take a remote online proctored license examination (remote testing) for all insurance licensing examinations.

The remote testing is proctored by PSI, through PSI’s Bridge^TM technology. The PSI Bridge^TM platform provides secure and flexible remote proctoring services. The Department will continue to partner with PSI to maintain the integrity and security of the examination process. If you have any questions, please review the Department's Remote Proctored Licensing Examination Frequently Asked Questions.

There is a $43 convenience fee to take the remote test. This fee is in addition to the Department's license examination fee.
