Texas State Insurance Licensing Requirements

HOW TO OBTAIN A Texas INSURANCE PRODUCER LICENSE

The state of Texas has no formal pre-licensing education requirement however it is recommended as the prelicensing course is designed to prepare candidates for the State Licensing Examination.

  1. Complete the prelicensing course.
  • Life Only
  • Life, Accident & Health
  • Property and Casualty
  • Personal lines

Course requirements:

  • This is a forced progression (locked) state that requires the student to review each lesson and pass each chapter quiz before moving onto the next section/chapter.
  • Assessments on key topics throughout the course must be successfully passed with a minimum score of 70% before moving onto the next chapter.
  1. Schedule the Texas State examination.

Online Remote Proctored Exams:

  • You must check the compatibility of your computer before registering for the exam. https://home.pearsonvue.com/tx/insurance/onvue
  • If your computer is not compatible with the online software, you will need to schedule your examination at a Pearson Vue test center.

Limitation on repeat examinations:

  • There are no limits on exam retakes.
  • Candidates taking an online examination are allowed only one attempt per exam. All subsequent examination attempts must be taken at a Pearson VUE testing center. There are no exceptions to this rule.
  1. Schedule Fingerprints:
  1. Pass your state exam.
  • Be sure to take advantage of the cram courses (Prep Review and Exam Simulator) within your prelicensing course during the waiting period.
  • Prep Review Course: This part of the training features content “boiled down to the essence” of the state exam. Chapters have only a few pages of material, but the content must be mastered to pass. Instructionally designed to teach individuals how to pass, most study effort should be invested here. Chapter exams are substantially larger (50+ questions), providing exposure to the types of questions seen on the state exam.
  • Exam Simulator: These special exams are designed to gauge content retention levels. Important: Only take the Exam Simulators after the Prep Review Course has been successfully completed. It ensures these questions will be “fresh in the mind”.
  • On the day of testing, you must present two forms of identification bearing your signature, one of which must be a valid government issued photo id.
  1. Apply for license.

Working as an Insurance Agent

Property and Casualty Insurance Agents

What can you expect working as an agent? Property and casualty insurance agents work with clients to help secure policies that protect people and businesses from financial loss.

For individuals many of these events include automobile accidents, fire, theft. For businesses these events can include the same as individuals but can also include workers’ compensation claims, product liability claims, or medical malpractice claims.

Life Insurance Agents

What can you expect from working as an Insurance agent? Life insurance agents work with clients to help secure policies that pay beneficiaries when a policyholder passes away. Life insurance agents also can help people prepare for retirement by offering certain types of annuities.

Health and long-term care insurance agents work with clients to help secure policies that cover the costs of medical care and assisted-living services. They also can help clients secure dental insurance and disability insurance.
