Connecticut Re-Implements Flood Insurance Training Requirement (Effective April 15, 2026)
Effective April 15, 2026, Connecticut resident insurance producers holding Property/Casualty or Personal Lines authority must complete a one-time, three credit NFIP Flood Insurance course approved by the Connecticut Insurance Department.
This course must be taken before the producer’s next renewal period. The three credits will be applied toward the licensee’s total General credit requirement. Failure to comply with this continuing education requirement could jeopardize the Producer’s authority to write insurance through the NFIP.
Our Flood Insurance Fundamentals: NFIP Training for Insurance Producers is coming soon to our Connecticut insurance CE catalog. This course meets all the latest training requirements with extensive information on how to identify the types of property and peril covered under standard NFIP policies, procedures for handling NFIP applications, and more.
This course is available now on our Connecticut insurance CE catalog. Upon completion, your course will be instantly submitted to the state for credit.
