Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
C.R.S. § 10-2-301(1),(3) requires 24 hours of approved continuing education during every 24-month cycle, of which at least 3 hours must be ethics. Producers holding multiple lines complete the hours once, and the Commissioner of Insurance may extend compliance by up to 1 additional year for good cause.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) The Colorado CE cycle runs 24 months, not 12 months.
- C) 12 hours is the carryover maximum, not the cycle total, and the 3-hour ethics minimum is mandatory.
- D) 30 hours exceeds the statutory 24-hour requirement.
Memory hook
24 for 24 with 3 ethics — one day of CE for each year of the cycle.
