    Seminars & Classroom Courses

    These courses are instructor led programs, usually in a live classroom setting, and do not require you to pass an exam to receive CE credit for the course. 

    You must choose one of the locations listed in the options above. Please make note of the address of the seminar you choose. You will also receive an email confirmation of your enrollment, which will include the address of the seminar. You can return here to review the address if you misplace it before the class.

    All of our seminars begin at 8:30 AM and end at 4:30 PM unless otherwise noted on your confirmation notice.  Please arrive at the classroom at least 10 minutes before the starting time on your confirmation notice. All students must be signed-in and seated BEFORE the official class start-time. If you arrive late, please DO NOT interrupt the class in session. You can talk to the instructor at the first break regarding the possibility of obtaining credit for the class or rescheduling for another date. Remember, these classes fill up quickly, and there is usually little or no room for agents who arrive at the last minute without registering in advance.

    Cell phones must be turned off during the entire duration of the seminar. You will have time to return messages and make calls during breaks and at lunch. 

    During the class, you must not have any materials on your desk except the textbook or handout provided by the instructor. By law, students who are reading other materials, talking to other students, sleeping, or otherwise not participating in the learning experience are not allowed to receive CE credit!

    Absolutely no recruiting or marketing for products, services, employment or any other activity is allowed at any time during the seminar - including during breaks and lunch. Students caught doing this may be asked to leave immediately and will NOT receive a refund.

    CA PARTNERSHIP CLASS REFUND POLICY:

    If you hold a professional designation you may request a certificate for courses taken and exams passed for insurance CE credit. If you pass and exam and would like to get additional credit for one of these designations, please use the link to the left: "CFP & PACE Credit".

    If you do not hold a professional designation and do not need any type of CE other than for your insurance license renewal, please do not order a PACE or CFP certificate. It will not benefit you and once ordered, there are no refunds!

    By the end of this insurance continuing education course, agents should fully understand:

    • What exposures affect Electronic Data Processing Equipment.
    • Why standard property policies do not cover EDP equipment well.
    • The advantages of EDP policies over standard property policies.
    • Be able to Identify quality repair facilities and workmanship.

    Typical provisions in coverage forms such as:

    1. Data Processing Equipment Coverage
    2. Data Processing Media Coverage
    3. Time Element coverage for EDP exposures
    4. Special liability needs for EDP exposures

    The course will discuss EDP policies and the way that wording varies. Also discussed will be underwriting, risk management, and endorsements available to tailor the EDP coverage to the needs of individual insureds. This insurance CE course will help agents better explain the need for separate coverage on EDP equipment, and assist agents in recommending the proper coverage forms and endorsements for their client’s EDP equipment and media. This should allow agents to provide better service to their clients.
