District of Columbia Insurance CE Courses (2026)
To renew your Insurance license in District of Columbia you need to satisfy the District of Columbia Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking (DISB)'s continuing education (CE) requirement — about 24 hours per 2-year cycle. Below is what the board requires and a comparison of course providers that offer qualifying CE. This is an unofficial guide — confirm any course is board-approved before you buy.
What District of Columbia requires for Insurance renewal
| CE hours required | 24 hours per cycle |
|---|---|
| Renewal cycle | 24 months |
| CE tracking system | NIPR |
| Governing body | District of Columbia Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking (DISB) |
Resident producers holding a major line of authority (Life, Accident/Health, Property and/or Casualty) must complete 24 CE credit hours in the two-year period before license expiration, including 3 hours of ethics (21 general + 3 ethics). Holding multiple major lines does not double the requirement. Excess general/ethics hours do not roll over. Third-party compliance sources report an additional one-time 3-hour NFIP flood insurance certification course for Property/Casualty (and personal lines) producers due during their first renewal compliance period, but this flood requirement was not confirmed on the DISB CE page itself. Separate, lower CE applies to Title producers (16 hrs non-attorney / 8 hrs attorney) and is not part of the standard producer requirement.
