This course is a good fit for:

  • New York property and casualty insurance agents
  • New York property and casualty brokers
  • Personal lines producers
  • Commercial lines producers
  • Producers who work with homeowners, auto, liability, and personal lines policies
  • Agency owners and producing staff who handle client disclosures, renewals, and claims referrals

✅ Does This Course Satisfy the New York Requirement?

Yes. This course provides 4 hours of elective New York insurance continuing education credit.


It counts toward the 15 total CE credits generally required for New York insurance license renewal or relicensing. However, this is an elective course.


This course does not satisfy the separate 1-hour Insurance Law requirement, 1-hour ethics and professionalism requirement, 1-hour diversity/inclusion/elimination of bias requirement, 1-hour basic flood requirement, or 3-hour enhanced NFIP flood requirement.


If you want the full 15 hours for a Property & Casualty renewal in one purchase, see our 15 Hour New York P&C Insurance Renewal Package listed below.

✅ New York Insurance Continuing Education Requirements

Most New York insurance producers must complete 15 credits of approved continuing education during each licensing period once the license has been in effect for more than two years.


For many licensees, the 15 credits must include:

  • At least 1 hour of Insurance Law instruction
  • At least 1 hour of ethics and professionalism instruction
  • At least 1 hour of diversity, inclusion, and elimination of bias instruction
  • At least 1 hour of flood insurance instruction, if licensed to sell one or more lines of property/casualty insurance
  • At least 3 hours of enhanced flood insurance instruction, if selling flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program

Self-study and online courses require a passing grade on a final exam to receive CE credit.


New York resident licensees must take courses from a New York DFS-approved provider organization. Continuing education must be completed before the renewal or relicensing application is submitted.

✅ When Do New York Insurance Licensees Renew?

New York insurance licenses generally renew every two years. Expiration dates vary by licensee, so producers should check their license record to confirm the exact expiration date.


Individual and TBA producer licenses are generally eligible for renewal within 180 days of the expiration date.


Because continuing education must be completed before submitting the renewal application, it is best to complete your CE early instead of waiting until the final days before expiration.

✅ How to Renew Your New York Insurance License

Step 1: Confirm Your License Type and Expiration Date

Check your New York insurance license record and confirm your license type, lines of authority, and expiration date.

Step 2: Confirm Your CE Requirements

Most producers need 15 CE credits per licensing period. Your required topics may include Insurance Law, ethics and professionalism, diversity and bias elimination, flood insurance, enhanced NFIP flood, and elective credits.

Step 3: Enroll in This 4-Hour Elective Course

Enroll online and begin immediately. The course is self-paced and can be completed from a computer, tablet, or phone.

Step 4: Complete the Course and Final Exam

Step 5: Receive Your Instant Emailed Certificate

After completing the course, your certificate is emailed immediately. Keep a copy for your records.

Step 6: We Report Your Completion

1st Choice CE reports your completed hours to New York within 24 hours when the correct license information is provided.
