CHANGES COMING OCTOBER 1

The Maryland Land Title Association (MLTA) has confirmed with the Maryland Insurance Administration (MIA) that on October 1, 2024 (prior to October 1, you will be required to complete the Pre-Licensing class) when Maryland HB0265/SB0336 goes into effect:

pre-licensing education will no longer be required to become a title insurance producer;
that there will no longer be a requirement for an applicant for a title insurance producer license to provide a certificate that the pre-licensing education has been completed prior to taking the insurance producer examination; and
because pre-licensing education will no longer be a requirement the Insurance Education Waiver Application and Affidavit of Employer is no longer necessary.

The MLTA recognizes the value of pre-licensing education for those candidates preparing to take the insurance producer examination and as such will continue to offer its pre-licensing education curriculum.
