The online exam process has been designed to meet professional testing standards set by The National
Alliance for Insurance Education & Research, and by state departments of insurance.
The OnLine exam is a 100‐point, multiple‐
choice test consisting of 50 questions. A proctor/monitor must be present with the student during the exam. A passing score of 70 or above
on the final exam is required for continuing education credit (CE) . The final exam is required for all 8
hour courses. For 4 hour courses, the final exam is ONLY required if the student is seeking continuing
education credits for insurance license renewal.
Student and proctor will sign an affidavit affirming that the proctoring rules were followed during the
exam. The student will also complete a CE request form, indicating whether or not continuing education
hours are being requested. (If not, simply fill out the bottom of the CE request form.)
The affidavit and CE request form must be mailed to The National Alliance in order to receive credit for
the course.
