An insurance producer who completes this continuing education course will gain 20 hours of instruction on life and health insurance. The course is broken into three large parts:
- general insurance,

- accident and health insurance.
The first part is a broad overview of insurance and the insurance industry. This part will address both the concept of insurance and the general practices of insurance producers.
The second part discusses life insurance policies and their provisions, annuities, qualified retirement plans, and the taxation of life insurance policies and benefits.
- The training on life insurance policies and their provisions will talk about the standard provisions found in life insurance policies before moving onto a discussion of beneficiaries and options and riders.
- The annuities segment will take an in depth look at annuity contracts including their relation to life insurance and how they are used.
- The instruction on qualified plans will examine retirement plans, what it means for a plan to be qualified, and how this affects the taxation of benefits.
- The last segment of this part of this course will address taxation of life insurance and annuities and benefits that can be gained from these kinds of insurance products.

- The portion on health insurance policies will go over the contractual elements of an accident and health insurance policy.
- The instruction on medical plans will discuss the various types of medical plans, managed care, cost containment strategies, and important federal laws such as the ACA and HIPAA.
- The training on group health will examine group health insurance policies in comparison to individual health insurance coverage. This segment will also explore conversion options and group health policies for small employers.
