In addition, each level has specific qualifications.

Adjuster Level 1 applicants must pass the Adjuster Level 1 exam.

Adjuster Level 2 applicants must:

• Successfully complete specified courses offered by the Insurance Institute of Canada (IIC)

Adjuster Level 3 applicants must:

• Have acted as an adjuster for at least 60 months within 10 years prior to application

Insurance adjusters who are licensed by and in good standing with a regulatory organization elsewhere in Canada may be eligible for licensing in Alberta if their scope of practice and competencies are similar.
