Who can register

To register you need to be preparing for one of these exams and to meet the licensing body's own requirements for it:

• Alberta: the Alberta Insurance Council requires General License Qualification Program (GLQP) certification from an approved education provider (valid for one year) before you write, and a CIPR number to register for the exam.
• British Columbia: the Insurance Council of British Columbia requires one of its approved education routes and the Council Rules Course for the Level 1 licence.

You also need a valid government photo ID and proof of your exam booking showing your exam date, uploaded with the Mock exam document upload form within 3 days of registering; the link is in your registration confirmation email.

Eligibility to write and licensing requirements are set by the Alberta Insurance Council and the Insurance Council of British Columbia, not by CCEC.

How free registration works

1. Complete the registration form, including the eligibility declaration. There is no payment step: your registration is submitted as soon as the form is complete. Then upload a copy of your government photo ID and proof of your exam booking using the Mock exam document upload form (the link is in your registration confirmation email), with the same email address you registered with, within 3 days.
2. Assessment. Your details and documents are checked against the eligibility requirements, usually within a few hours if everything is in order. If our Admissions team needs anything else, you are told exactly what to send and by when. If your documents have not arrived, you receive reminders, the first about 2 hours after registering.
3. Access. If approved, you receive your access email with the link, your access code and your access end date, one week from approval. If not approved, you are told why.

One free registration

One free registration per person. Free Diagnostic Access cannot be extended or repeated; for continued access, register for Mock Exam Access.
