The Washington Self Insurance Continuing Education Sponsor/Instructor Application for Course Approval is a form that must be completed and submitted to the Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner (OIC) by individuals or organizations that wish to become a continuing education sponsor or instructor in the state of Washington. This application is required for all courses that are to be offered to self-insured employers in Washington, and must be approved by the OIC before the course can be offered. The application consists of four sections: Section A: Sponsor/Instructor Information; Section B: Course Information; Section C: Course Content; and Section D: Course Evaluation. In Section A: Sponsor/Instructor Information, applicants must provide information about the individual or organization that is offering the course. This includes contact information, the qualifications of the instructor, and the sponsoring organization. In Section B: Course Information, applicants must provide information about the course, such as the title, description, expected length, and credit hours. In Section C: Course Content, applicants must provide a detailed description of the course content for review by the OIC. This includes an outline of the objectives of the course, the topics to be covered, and any materials to be used during the course. In Section D: Course Evaluation, applicants must provide information on how the course will be evaluated, including the type of evaluation system and any assessment tools that will be used. They must also provide a copy of the course certificate and any other materials that will be used to document completion of the course. Upon completion of the application, it must be submitted to the OIC for review and approval.
