SuccessCE’s insurance continuing education course is offered for online self-study, so agents can complete the training at their own pace.  This course is designed to explore the conditions that have led us to the point where long term care is receiving front-page attention. The emotional and physical impact such dependence evokes and the alternatives available to those who find themselves in this position are discussed. The course covers Long Term Care history and beliefs; alternatives to paying for Long Term Care; the Medicaid Alternative; the case for Long Term Care Insurance; and the Long Term Care contract.  The development of this course continues the Success CE commitment to high quality and knowledge based courses to improve the knowledge of agents nationwide.

Announcing the Success Family of CE Companies New LTC Partnership Curriculum - 01/2007

Newport Beach, CA, January 2007----SuccessCE announced the expansion of its insurance continuing education curriculum to meet the state-specific producer training requirements nationwide for each state’s Long Term Care Program (LTC). This action will meet the need of the increasing number of states that are implementing Long Term Care Insurance (LTCI) Partnership Programs.

"Our announcement reaffirms Success CE's commitment to provide all education materials necessary to fulfill the insurance continuing education and training requirements of all producers in every state," said J. William Cooley Success CE's President & CEO. "As these Long Term Care Insurance Partnership Programs evolve, and as the states define their specific educational needs, we will make insurance continuing education courses available to ensure that all insurance professionals can continue to quickly and efficiently meet their training requirements."

As part of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, all states can now offer Long Term Care Insurance Partnership Programs, which unite private long term care insurance coverage with a state's Medicaid program. Among its provisions relating to LTCI Partnerships, the Act specifies that individuals who sell long term care insurance policies under a partnership program must receive mandated training and demonstrate evidence that they understand these policies and how they relate to other long term care coverage and resources.
