  1. Resident license

    Get the right license line

    In Rhode Island, insurance licensing exams are run by Pearson VUE. You schedule your health line exam with them.

  4. Background check

  5. Apply for your license

    Apply for your Rhode Island resident license through NIPR. You receive your National Producer Number (NPN), a unique ID that follows you to every state, during the application process.
