The third exemption addresses states such as North Carolina that have a grandfather provision for a particular group of licensees that meet specific criteria. The ULS were updated to permit states to continue allowing for grandfather provisions, however, the state must, on a prospective basis, eliminate CE waivers based on age or years in the business.

The Agent Services Division submitted a rule revision to the CE requirements so that previously exempt from CE grandfathered licensees under 11 NCAC 6a.0802(j) are also now exempt from Ethics and Flood CE requirements. The below revision to 11 NCAC 6a.0802 was approved for an effective date of June 1, 2011. A letter will be mailed to each licensee that currently has a permanent CE exemption notifying them that effective June 1, 2011, they no longer have to complete Ethics of Flood CE requirements.
