Continuing Education is a cornerstone of the RPA designation.  In an effort to add value to our member designees, the RPA is making a commitment to publishing educational events throughout the country that satisfy your CE requirements.  It's tough enough keeping up with everything else you do!  We thought we would help with the burden of finding appropriate and meaningful courses to broaden your knowledge and keep you up to date on this ever-changing industry.  Click for Courses !

New Faster, Easier, Streamlined Continuing Education (CE) Submission For All RPA Members

The Society of Registered Professional Adjusters understands that our members are insurance claims professionals devoted to professionalism and ethical leadership in the insurance industry.

The previous requirements for submitting CE's were beyond that of other professional organizations such as attorneys, accountants, and other insurance license holders. The Board of the RPA has revamped our entire process of requirements for the registration of our members' Continuing Education credits.

Effective immediately, new Continuing Education (CE) submission forms are available for download here. The new forms acknowledge that our members are trustworthy, ethical, and professional. You can even submit CE credit requests online using our new
Online CE Form. Simply fill it in and submit it on your PC -- no need to print or mail anything.

If you still prefer to use the downloadable forms, you simply list the courses you've taken along with basic information, then sign and certify completion of the courses and submit to RPA. We realize how busy our members are and trust that this choice of easy new procedures will better enable each member to submit their CEs more easily and on a timely basis.

Earlier, the Board instituted another idea that our members had requested. Members could not always secure all of their 15 hours of CE credits in one year (due to conflicting schedules, business and personal reasons, catastrophes, etc). The RPA will now allow members who are short in CEs one year to apply an overage in CE credits either from one year previous or one year forward.

You spoke, we listened!
