Why D is correct
Under T.C.A. § 56-6-107 and Dept. Rule 0780-1-56, a Tennessee producer must complete 24 hours of approved continuing education in each 2-year renewal cycle, and 3 of those hours must be ethics. Getting both the total and the cycle right — and remembering the ethics floor — is what keeps the license in good standing with the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) The requirement is 24 hours per 2-year cycle, not each year, and the ethics component is a required subject.
- B) 24 hours per 2-year cycle is right, but the ethics requirement is 3 hours, not 10 hours.
- C) The ethics component is correctly stated, but the total is 24 hours per cycle, not 10 hours.
Memory hook
Twenty-four over two years, three of them ethics — not ten, not twelve months.
