A reduced 12-hour requirement (2 hours ethics) applies to a producer/service representative employed to work only in the office of an employing producer or insurer who is not licensed as a non-resident elsewhere. Producers limited to certain lines only (credit, rental vehicle, crop, portable electronic, travel, motor club, dental services, legal services) are exempt from CE. No specific long-term care, annuity-suitability, or flood CE hour mandate was confirmed on the official pages reviewed.
