Certified Insurance Service Representative

CISR is a practical program, stressing the understanding and analysis of risks and exposures. Each of the five, one-day courses provides intermediate level instruction covering all phases of the customer service representative's daily work. Each course is followed by an optional one-hour examination.

When a student passes all five courses the CISR designation is earned. An individual must successfully complete the five CISR examinations within three calendar years following the year in which the individual successfully completed his/her first examination.

A CISR must update once a year to maintain the designation. See update options below.
