CT Public Adjuster · Put your knowledge to work in context.
The Connecticut Public Adjuster License Examination is the multiple-choice test that Connecticut uses to assess people who want to work as public adjusters - professionals who represent policyholders, rather than insurers, when a property claim is filed. The credential is aimed at candidates who intend to negotiate, prepare, and document first-party property claims on behalf of insureds, and who need to demonstrate command of both insurance fundamentals and state-specific rules before licensure.
