The Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) designation signifies a high level of professional education and a commitment to a course of continuing education. Persons who earn the CIC designation have indicated they recognize the need for practical insurance education through their careers as insurance professionals. 

 

EARNING THE CIC DESIGNATION

The CIC designation is earned by attending five, two-day institutes. At the conclusion of each institute, a rigorous examination must be passed. You must take five of the seven CIC institutes, and pass five examinations, within five calendar years after passing the first exam (for example: If you pass your first CIC exam in June 2020, you must pass five exams by December 31, 2025).

TOPICS AVAILABLE

The designation is awarded by officials of the Society of Certified Insurance Counselors.

Once you attain the CIC designation, you must attend at least one CIC program annually to update. Note: Any "tenured CICs" can maintain their designation by paying CIC dues every year and attending a qualified program every other year. The recognition of "tenured" has been granted to CICs who have met the following criteria: 1. Held the designation for 25 or more years; 2. OR CICs who have not held the designation for 25+ years, but are 70 years old or older; 3. Designation is in good standing; 4. AND membership dues are current.
