Cover Oregon is partnering with agents to help Oregonians in every part of the state access health coverage. Insurance agents who become affiliated with Cover Oregon will be able to sell all plans that are offered through Cover Oregon and receive commission. The first step to becoming an affiliated agent is to complete an online training course. Once you complete the course, you will be sent to the registration form for in-person training with specific dates and locations. All agents who want to be certified by Cover Oregon are required to attend an in-person training session.
A few things you should know about agent training:
Online Training
- Self-paced, general overview about Cover Oregon, insurance exchanges and the Affordable Care Act.
- Should take less than one hour to complete and can be viewed as many times as you would like.
- Once completed you will be able to register for the required in-person training – space is limited at each session and filled on first-come basis.
In-Person Training
- Comprehensive, full-day session covering the technical information agents need to assist individuals and small employers with application for eligibility and sorting and filtering plan choices for enrollment.
- There is a $25 charge per agent to cover the cost of food and beverage for the full-day, in-person session.
- You will receive eight hours of continuing education credits upon completion.
- Captive agents and insurance carrier staff are welcome to review the online course but should contact their company for details regarding Cover Oregon training for carrier staff.
- You must be a licensed producer to attend the in-person training.
