The Nevada Public Adjuster license

Nevada asks no pre-licensing course of an adjuster. The Division's own page for this license sets out what an applicant does and the education it names is the 24 hours of continuing education owed each license term, three of them ethics, which falls after licensure rather than before it. The examination is Pearson VUE's and has to be passed before the application. The Division defines the license by two things at once: the holder solely represents the financial interests of the insured named in the policy, and does not investigate, negotiate or settle workers' compensation claims. The line of authority is written out as Adjuster Property and Casualty, which is why the same examination preparation serves this license and the independent adjuster's property and casualty line. Three bars come from the parent Adjuster page and they apply to every adjuster license Nevada issues. A licensee may hold only one type of adjuster license in Nevada. A licensee may not be in the business of repairing auto bodies or own a controlling interest in one. And a licensee may not be concurrently licensed as a producer for property, casualty or surety, or as a surplus lines broker, with the single exception of a bail agent. No other state on this site forbids an adjuster from also holding a producer license.

The Division states the test rather than naming the states: Nevada is reciprocal with, and accepts a designated home state license from, any state that requires an examination for the adjuster or designated home state adjuster license. A non-resident whose own home state does not issue the license type or line of authority sought may designate another state instead, and an applicant who designates Nevada takes Nevada's own requirements in full.
