Why C is correct
Tennessee's continuing education requirement, administered under T.C.A. § 56-6-107 and Dept. Rule 0780-1-56, requires producers to complete 24 hours of approved continuing education every 2 years, of which 3 hours must be in ethics. Falling short jeopardizes the biennial license renewal processed by the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) The requirement is 24 hours, not 20, and a 3-hour ethics block is mandatory, not optional.
- B) Neither the total nor the cycle matches Tennessee's rule: it is 24 hours every 2 years, with 3 hours of ethics.
- D) The 24-hour total is measured over a 2-year renewal period, not each year.
Memory hook
Twenty-four in two, with three on ethics — the Tennessee CE rhythm.
