DOI Announces “Bail Bondsmen Industry Day”

February 7, 2013 – 2:54 pm

NCBAA is always striving to make sure that all bail bondsmen are aware of changes occuring in our industry. We also want to make sure that any process changes are explained in full so that everyone is inconvienced as little as possible. In January, Amy Holt, NCBAA Education Co-Chair, contacted DOI to see if there could be some type of training for licensed bondsmen concerning the new licensee application portal. Amy also asked if any training could include a chance for bondsmen to ask questions about the on-line license renewal process.

As a result of Amy’s inquiry, Rebecca Shigley, Agent Services Deputy Commissioner, contacted Pearson VUE to see what could be arranged. Today email invitations to an Industry Day for Bail Bondsmen and three webinars were sent to all licensed bondsmen. – DOI Invitation : Bail Bond Industry Meeting

You can RSVP to attend one of the Webinars or the In Person Day here
