To qualify for renewal of a resident license, each licensee whose expiring license period is at least one year but not more than two years shall complete a minimum of twenty credit hours of approved insurance continuing education courses offered by an approved provider. To qualify for renewal of a resident license, each licensee whose expiring license period is more than two years shall complete a minimum of forty credit hours of approved insurance continuing education courses offered by an approved provider. B. After the licensee completes an approved continuing education course, the approved provider shall furnish the licensee with a certificate of compliance in a form approved by the director that certifies that the licensee has taken and completed the course. The licensee and a person authorized to sign on behalf of the approved provider shall sign the certificate. The director may require that the licensee attach the signed certificate of compliance to the application for renewal of the resident license. The director shall not renew the licensee's resident license unless the director has obtained evidence that the licensee has completed the credit hours prescribed in subsection A. The required credit hours apply to the same term as the license. C. Pursuant to subsection B, the form approved by the director shall require at least the following information: 1. The licensee's name and the license number that is issued by the department. 2. The name of the approved provider. 3. The subjects and titles of the approved continuing education courses that the licensee completed. 4. The dates that the licensee completed the approved continuing education courses. D. Except as provided in subsections E and F, a licensee seeking to renew a nonresident license shall submit proof to the director of having earned the continuing education credit requirements that are needed to satisfy the requirements of the nonresident licensee's resident state to comply with the continuing education requirements prescribed in this section. E. If the nonresident licensee's resident state does not recognize credits earned by residents of this state, the nonresident applicant shall satisfy the continuing education prescribed in this section only by earning continuing education credits from an approved provider. F. Subsections D and E do not apply to a nonresident licensee whose resident state does not have a continuing education requirement.
