Our Adjuster Essentials offers the single course you need for your state. For some states, it’s the required pre-licensing course and for others, it is an exam prep course. Either way, the essentials will prepare you to ace your state’s adjuster licensing exam.

The Total Adjuster Package includes your state’s exam prep or pre-licensing course as well as additional training to help prepare you for the job itself. Having this knowledge before you start will mean you can get hired and start closing claims (and making money!) faster.

• Construction 101 covers how to determine and estimate the type, grade, and quantity of building materials, as well as the basics of the construction process and rooftop assessments and inspections. It was created by a veteran adjuster and is a great precursor to XM8 training.
• The Xactimate Live Webinar will teach you how to work a claim from start to finish so you can hit the ground running when you get assigned those first claims.
• Our Adjuster Success Method course is a new, one-of-a-kind career training webinar. It was created by veteran adjusters who wanted to share what they wished they’d known when they started – everything from how to find work, what tools you’ll need, how to adjust and inspect your first claim, and most importantly, how to set yourself up for a lasting and successful career.

To obtain your New York adjuster license, complete the following steps:

1. Meet the basic New York Adjuster Licensing Requirements

• • Be at least 18 years old
  • Be trustworthy and competent
  • Never have committed a felony or any crime involving fraudulent or dishonest practices

2. While New York does not require a pre-licensing course, we recommend completing AdjusterPro’s New York Exam Prep Course to ensure passing the state exam

3. Register for and pass the New York State Exam

• • Register online with PSI
  • When asked to select pre-licensing provider from the drop-down menu, select 7777 Pre-Licensing Waived (because pre-licensing is not required for this license)

• • You must include your signed IdentoGO pre-enrollment confirmation/receipt with your license application submission

6. Check to see if your license has been issued at NYDFS License Search
