Every way to qualify
More than one route leads to this license, and which one you take changes what you study and whether you sit the exam. They are listed in full because the course is only the first of them.
-
Route 1 Take the 20-hour course
State exam required
-
20 hours of pre-licensing education for the Independent Adjuster line, approved by the Department
Twenty hours on the Department's own pre-licensing table, or demonstrated experience instead. The paper is the combined Property and Casualty with Workers Compensation adjuster examination at Pearson VUE, two hours and 60 questions, which the Department's adjuster page calls the General Adjuster outline.

Route 2 Demonstrate experience instead of the course
State exam required
-
Experience or special education or training of sufficient duration and extent to make the applicant competent, which the statute does not put a period on
The Department's 2018 instruction sheet puts the substitution in its own words: "In lieu of completing an approved independent adjuster prelicensing education course, an applicant may submit written proof to the Department that he/she has had experience or special education or training with reference to the handling of loss claims under insurance contracts of sufficient duration and extent to make him/her competent to fulfill the responsibilities of an independent adjuster."No period is set anywhere, which is why no minimum is shown. Miss. Code Ann. 83-17-511(1)(d) is the section behind it and the Mississippi Code is published only through the LexisNexis viewer, which serves no free per-section URL.
