Most students will have their credits processed the same day on which they complete their final exam. If a course is completed outside of our normal business hours, these credits will be processed on the morning of the next business day. Once your credits have been successfully filed, you will receive a notification email that also contains your Certificate of Completion.
No. Self-study final exams do not require a monitor.
Self-study final exams are closed book. Licensees may not refer to the course material while the exam is in progress.
The final exam must be passed with a score of 70 percent or higher to receive credit. Students have unlimited attempts to pass the exam.
A roster fee of $1.15 per credit is required to process course credits in this state. This fee will be added to your order total during checkout and is then sent by us to the state upon completion.
No. You may spend as much time with the course material as you feel necessary, and you may come and go from that material as often as you like. There is no time limit on our exams, however all exams must be completed within one sitting. Once started, if an exam is abandoned for any reason you will need to begin that exam from the beginning when you next return.
Do take special note that every course has an expiration date, which is based on both the state approval and your website purchase date. In order to receive credit you must complete the course before that expiration date.

Maryland is reciprocal with all states for the major lines of authority (L/H/VUL/P/C). This means that non-resident producers are not required to complete the Maryland CE requirements as long as the producer has met the continuing education requirements for his or her home state. If the home state does not have a CE requirement, the producer must complete the CE requirements for Maryland.
For other lines such as Title and Public Adjuster, Maryland is NOT reciprocal with all states. Non-residents who hold these lines/licenses are required to completed Maryland CE.
Special Training/Education Requirements: Nonresidents who satisfy the training requirements of another state that are similar to Maryland's law will be deemed compliant for Maryland’s requirement.
The license term is every 2 years ending on the last day of the producer's birth month. Please note that continuing education must be completed and posted to the licensee's transcript prior to the licensee’s expiration date. It is strongly recommended that CEs be comleted 30 days before expiration to allow ample time for the credits to be updated.
A course may not be taken for credit more than once within the same license term. If a course is repeated in two consecutive license terms, there must be at least 6 months between the course completion dates to receive credit.
Excess CE hours may not be carried forward to the next 2-year license term.
