How to Earn the RPLU Designation

 
The PLUS Curriculum, comprised of 23 comprehensive learning modules, focuses on the major lines of professional liability. These modules are also part of the education required to achieve the Registered Professional Liability Underwriter (RPLU) designation.
 

The RPLU designation provides you with a broad understanding of the key professional liability disciplines. This designation is recommended for anyone active in the field of professional liability.

Once you've earned your RPLU designation, you can continue your learning by completing 5 additional elective modules and their corresponding exams, thus earning the RPLU+ designation.
