How to become an insurance agent ?
what is the critaria to become an general insurance (motor vehicle) agent, from where should I got complete training. How much time duration it will take
You may contact the office of any of the general insurance company's in your area and ask them if they are recruiting agents. Now there are pvt general insurance cos, other than the govt Co's. If they are recruiting then you may apply. Most of the Co's offer free training while some may charge about Rs.1000 -1500 for a 15 day course (100 hours) from IRDA (Insurance Regulatory Development Authority). At the end of the course u have to appear for an exam - it may be on line - and pass the exam. If u pass the exam you'll be issued a license by IRDA for a period of three years (u have to renew after 3 years appearing again for an exam).
You can also take a combined license, i.e., one for Life Insurance and one for General Insurance. You have to appear for 150 hrs training if you opt for the combined license. Pls note that you can't be an agent for more then one Life and one General Insurance Co.,
All the best..

depends...are you wanting to have your own agency or work for someone lese? you can start by working for someone lese. a lot of places will send you to the course and get you licensed. the course i took was 1 week long and then i tested with the state. the course itself cost $200 and the state exam was about $100. my employer paid for it as long as i agreed to work for him for a year.

The first and most imp is u should have a positive attitude towards selling of insurance products...its a service product in which the selling skill is different from that of tangible products...u need to develop ur convincing skill and product knowledge...u also need to pass the IRDA exam inorder to get license...develop ur own network from ur contacts...

You need to get a license in your state. If you go to www.iiaa.org, they will have state specific classes in your state. You can get licensed inside of a month.
The hard part is, finding a company willing to let you sell their product. Progressive is the easiest to get appointed to. But you might end up having to work for another agency for a few years (which is a good idea anyway, to learn how the industry works) before you can get an appointment.
