Continuing Education

NIPR will verify CE compliance before allowing renewal application to be available.   You may select your resident state on the following link: Verify My CE to view your CE transcript and determine whether the state has updated your status to compliant in their system and on what date.  It generally takes up to 72 hours from the compliance date for the status to be updated in our system.

Workers’ Compensation Adjuster CE Cycle (Even Years)

  • Workers’ Compensation Adjusters must complete all CE requirements by March 31 of every even year.

  • New licensees do not have to complete CE until their first renewal cycle.

    • Example: An adjuster licensed on October 1, 2026 would not need to complete CE until the March 31, 2028 renewal.

  • Note: Vermont’s CE schedule follows a two-year review cycle. CE is not required until a licensee has completed their first full two-year cycle ending on the statewide renewal deadline. This means newly licensed individuals are not required to complete CE during the partial year in which they were first licensed.

Workers’ Compensation Adjusters CE Requirement

  • Vermont requires non-resident Workers’ Compensation Adjusters to complete CE before renewing.
  • If CE is completed before the license expiration date, applicants have a 14-day grace period after expiration to submit the renewal application.
