What is the ethics requirement?

All Institutes designations require completion of a free online ethics course. The course includes quizzes at the end, and you can retake the quizzes if needed. There are no printed materials — the course is fully online.

Which ethics course should I take?

• Ethics 312 — If you plan to pursue the CPCU designation at any point. This course includes the CPCU Canons and applies toward all programs, including CPCU.
• Ethics 311 — If you do not plan to pursue CPCU. This course applies toward all programs except CPCU.

If you need CE credits toward a Producer or Adjuster license, a CE version is available.
