How do I get my Life and Health (Disability) license?
Prepare to take the exam.
1. Sign up for the pre-licensing course through Xcel or ExamFX, the following steps are required and should be done expeditiously. Reach out to your mentor for the discount code, specific to your agency.
2. Google your state's Department of Insurance, look for Insurance Producer, then follow the step by step instructions on how to schedule the background check & fingerprints at a scanning facility near you ASAP. Do this on the same day that you sign up for the pre-licensing course so it doesn't cause delays in the future.
3. Use your state's DOI website to schedule your Life/Health Exam 2-3 weeks from the day you start studying for the exam. This will give you a deadline and motivate you to study with intention.
