State Chapters

In addition to the annual Career Development Seminar and other activities of the Insurance Regulatory Examiners Society on the national level, virtually every state is also organized on a local level. State Chapters are encouraged to set their own priorities, elect their own officers, hold their own meetings, and elect or name a State Chair. All general members of IRES are members of a State Chapter and membership in a specific State Chapter is based on the state affiliation as declared by the general member and on file with IRES.

If your chapter is not listed, the chair position may currently be vacant. ​

Some positives on becoming a State Chair and participating in the monthly calls include:

 

  • Keep up to date on any upcoming IRES events such as the IRES CDS that takes place in August each year;

  • Keep up to date on any new educational programs and opportunities through IRES;

  • Keep up to date on any important topics passed on to the State Chairs from other IRES Committees;

  • A chance to communicate/network with your fellow regulators from other jurisdictions;

  • An opportunity to keep your fellow employees up to date on IRES events/training opportunities; and

  • Continuing Education credits for your participation in the monthly meetings.
