Does anyone know a web or.?

my friend wants to be a life insurance agent do you have to go to college or does anyone know how to get started in being a insurance agent.

Truth is that a formal education directly contributes to very few jobs with the exception of doctors, architects, and so on. It's more a right of passage.

I dont think there is any formal education. A bachelor's degree would help. Here is a site that lists few insurance jobs, I think your friend should apply online http://www.placementindia.com/job-recrui...

In Ohio where I am an agent, what you have to do is take 40 hours of class room work and then take a state test presented by the department of insurance. I imagine that it is the same for most states. As for getting started in life insurance I know a lot of people get started w/ Western and Southern Life, personally I have never dealt w/ or sold for that company, but I know a lot of people who have and they all say it is long hours.
I personally like property and casualty insurance better than life.

you don't need a degree. All you need is to take a 40 hour course, most states, then sit for an exam.
It not too hard of an exam either.

Go to your state insurance department website. For life insurance, you usually have to have a company sponsor you before you can get your license. It does vary by state, though.
