Every way to qualify

  1. Route 1 Be attested for by a licensed adjuster

    No state exam for this license

    The supervising adjuster's attestation

    • An attestation filed with the application by a licensed adjuster holding the same line or lines the apprentice has applied for, certifying that the apprentice will be subject to that adjuster's training, direction and control and that the licensed adjuster assumes responsibility for the apprentice's actions. One adjuster may supervise no more than five active apprentices at a time.

    and age, residence and character

    • At least eighteen years old, a resident of Oklahoma who has designated it as a home state, with a business or mailing address here for service of process, trustworthy, reliable and of good reputation, and no act that is a ground for action under 36 O.S. 6220.

    36 O.S. 6204.1, added by Laws 2009, c. 176. Subsection A says what it is for in one sentence: "The apprentice adjuster license is an optional license to facilitate the experience, education, and training necessary to ensure reasonable competency of the responsibilities and duties of an adjuster."Four terms are the whole of the bargain. The apprentice may adjust only in Oklahoma, and only by participating in the investigation, settlement and negotiation of claims subject to the review and final determination of the supervising adjuster. Compensation is on a salaried or hourly basis only, which rules out working the claim for a share of it. The license runs six months and is nonrenewable. And 6204.1(C)(5) makes the examination a choice rather than a bar: the apprentice is not required to take it, but may at any time, and "If the individual takes and successfully completes the adjuster exam, the apprentice adjuster license shall automatically terminate and an adjuster license shall be issued to that individual."

No national seller sells a course for this license. The Oklahoma products sellers do carry are all for a producer line or for the adjuster; Aceable sells nothing in Oklahoma at all. The apprentice adjuster sits no examination and takes no course, which is the point of the license.
