An insurance producer must also complete a one-time four (4) hour annuity training course provided by a continuing education provider approved by the state. The OneAmerica insurance companies will verify that a producer has completed the appropriate OneAmerica insurance company product-specific training and a state approved annuity training course as part of processing an application. Annuity applications will be returned for re-solicitation after the training requirements, both the product-specific training and the annuity certification course (within the required time frame), have been met.
