The construction industry is specialized so the insurance professionals who handle their business should be too. The CRIS designation increases the competence, confidence, and credibility of insurance professionals who sell or underwrite insurance for contractors. Contractors who buy insurance from a CRIS designee know they are dealing with a professional who is committed to the construction industry.

There are five courses required to earn the CRIS designation, and they can be taken in any order:

• CRIS Part 1 - Commercial Liability Ins. for Contractors
• CRIS Part 2 - Contractual Risk Transfer in Construction
• CRIS Part 3 - Commercial Auto, Surety, CIPs, & Misc. Lines
• CRIS Part 4 – Property Insurance for Contractors
• CRIS Part 5 - Workers Compensation for Contractors

Online testing:
An online exam is taken for each course when the student is ready, allowing additional study time after the course. NO PROCTOR is required. There are 50 questions and 70% is a passing score. NO EXAM IS REQUIRED FOR CE CREDIT.

Maintaining the Designation:
To maintain the designation you must complete 6 hours of CRIS CE credit every 12 months. Courses that qualify for the CRIS reaccreditation will be offered by the Big I SC several times a year.
