 4 ness and competency to act as an independent adjuster of each individual
 5 applicant for such license, and of each proposed sub-licensee, except in
 6 the case of a renewal license, require every such individual to take and
 7 pass, to the satisfaction of the superintendent, a personal written
 8 examination. The superintendent may prescribe the types of written exam-
 9 inations according to the kind or kinds of insurance claims [which] that
 10 the applicant is to be licensed to investigate and adjust. The exam
 11 requirement shall be deemed met for individuals holding a claims certif-
 12 ication issued by a national or state-based claims association with a
 13 certification program that consists of at least forty hours of pre-exam
 14 coursework, a proctored exam of sufficient length to adequately deter-
 15 mine the competency of the individual, and twenty-four hours of continu-
 16 ing education required for certification renewals on a biennial basis,
 17 subject to the approval of the superintendent.
 18 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
