To maintain a Texas property and casualty adjuster license, what is commonly required?

• A. No ongoing requirements after initial licensure.
• B. Complete continuing education (CE) hours.
• C. Maintain a full-time employment with a licensed insurer.
• D. Only pass a one-time ethics exam.

Answer: (B)

Ongoing licensure hinges on staying current with industry knowledge and regulations, and that’s done through continuing education. For a Texas property and casualty adjuster, the license is renewed by completing a set amount of continuing education hours within the renewal period. This requirement keeps adjusters up to date on changes in laws, regulations, claims practices, and ethical standards. It isn’t about remaining employed by a specific insurer, nor is it satisfied by a one-time ethics exam. If the continuing education isn’t completed, the license can’t be renewed and may lapse.
