DDA & Qualiopi, made clear
Continuing training is no longer optional for insurance distributors. Here is what the rule says — and how our courses bring you into compliance.
15 hours of training per year
The Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD/DDA) requires every distributor to complete at least 15 hours of continuing training per year, in line with the products and responsibilities they handle.
The aim: to guarantee competent advice to the client. The employer must ensure this obligation is met and keep a record of it. Our sessions deliver a certificate stating the duration and content, directly enforceable in the event of an audit.
- Content aligned with DDA-eligible themes
- Precise hourly count (half-day, full-day, multi-day modules)
- Individual certificate issued on completion

Brokers, general agents, intermediaries, staff in charge of distribution, claims handlers and underwriters: anyone taking part in insurance distribution is covered by the DDA obligation.
In-person inter-company sessions or on-site intra-company training. Durations add up to reach your 15 annual hours on the themes that matter to you.
A Qualiopi requirement
