LICENSING SYSTEM CHANGES

May 23, 2005

The Georgia Insurance Comm-ission held “Ind-ustry Day Meet-ings” across the state in May to discuss recent changes to the licensing system.

In an effort to be responsive to agent issues and concerns, Commissioner John Oxendine asked Promissor, which regulates initial insurance licensing tests and renewal procedures/tests and qualifications, to join him in a forum for discussion of agent and licensing issues. There was a joint Promissor-insurance department panel to present various topics of interest and during which questions from the audience were answered.

Industry participation was encouraged and by attending this event agents satisfied their 2005 Continuing Education Ethics Requirement at no cost.
