How to become an insurance adjuster?

Career: Insurance Adjuster

Insurance Adjusters are usually only required to have a high school diploma or GED, but earning an associates or bachelor’s degree may help set you apart. The next step is to take coursework to pass the licensing exam. This program can be offered in the classroom or online. While not every state requires licensure, most employers do. For that reason, if you plan to work in a non-licensing state, consider earning a non-resident Designated Home State (DHS) license from Florida or elsewhere. Once you get a job, working either for an employer or on behalf of many insurance companies as an Independent Insurance Adjuster, you’ll be expected to take ongoing education courses to retain your license.
