Here's what I found: 

1) WHERE CAN I GET STUDY MATERIALS FOR THE LICENSING EXAMS?

The candidate guide contains content outlines and a listing of suggested study materials for all examinations. You can receive a candidate guide by calling PearsonVUE (formerly Promissor) at 1-800-274-0668 or accessing it on-line at www.pearsonvue.com. The candidate guide is provided free of charge.

CADO also provides a Licensing page where we have done some of the research for you.  There is a map were you can click on the state to get some information,  Also, on the licensing page we provide a special search box that searches most of the State DOI web sites at the same time.

Hello all. I just have a quick question.  I was advised that in order to get my NC license, I will have to spend a certain amount of classroom hours, then take an exam.  I just received an email for the NCDOI and was told if I wanted an adjuster's license, I just have to take the test.  Am I missing something here?? Are there 2 types of licenses.....one an insurance and one an adjusters?  Please advise on what the correct title of license it is that I need to obtain.  Thank you all.

 Is this your first license? Or do you have licenses in other States? If you hold a license in a friendly (reciprocating State) you should not have to take a course or test. I recently got my NC, SC and GA license without having to take a course. I have only attended Texas course and have used it to bypass these courses in several States. Gees.. you will spend lots and lots of money unless you do your homework. I could tell you which license is needed, but you need to learn to research on your own if you are wanting to "Get in the Bidness"
 

I can assure you that I put a lot of time into researching everything in this career.  I posts these questions because I have not been able to secure any valid information for most of my questions.  Typically, people who are seasoned in a profession, thereby making them a professional, are more than accomodating to people just entering the field.  I am not finding that to be the case on this site.  A lot of the replies seem to note a bit of sarcacism and negativity.  I need to know the answers from a "professional" in the "bidness" or I would not waste your time or anyone else who is seasoned in this profession.

If you read through the forum you will find that there are reasons for some of the sarcasm and negativity directed toward newbs. One of the forums biggest problems with newbs is their failure to use spell check before posting (Unless poking fun or being sarcacist ).

virgo I don,t think you will go very far in this field. I don,t know you , but you have turned down all help that has been offered.just my$ 0 .2 comment and the last one.

Virgo,

In the above posts you were given four websites and an 800 number.

If you put in a lot of time into research, then you will understand that one of the HUGE issues is where you live.  Others explored this with you earlier, and you were no-where to be found.  What is your state of residence? Are you seeking a non-resident license?

It is a shallow view that people here are not helping new people.  You need to "take it on the chin" for providing part of the puzzle and disappearing when others were offering help.  If you post something on a forum, watch for answers and respond - so a dialog can happen.
