Summary
Rule Chapter 69O-228 was promulgated to establish requirements and standards for continuing education courses and records for persons: (1) licensed to solicit or sell insurance or act as limited surety or bail bond agents, (2) licensed to adjust workers’ compensation claims in this state and (3) authorized to offer or teach related coursework in this state.
Section 626.2816, Florida Statutes, specifically requires the Department of Financial Services to adopt rules relating to continuing education of this type. Towards this end, the Department of Financial Services has promulgated Rule Chapter 69O-228. The Office does not have sufficient statutory authority to enforce the rules contained in Rule Chapter 69O-228 and as a result this rule chapter should be repealed.
