Textbooks, Online Tutorials, and Addenda
All CIP courses include a comprehensive textbook developed by the Insurance Institute. The Textbook Editions will show you the most current edition of the CIP learning material available.
Note about Student Resource Guides (SRGs): All new textbook editions published after 2016 include an enhanced online tutorial. The online tutorial replaces the SRG from previous mandatory and applied courses.
Physical textbooks are now available for spring 2020 courses. They will be shipped to the address indicated in your order. We cannot modify the shipping address after your order is submitted.
Online Tutorials
Online tutorials are available in e-Learning for most courses. They include the following:
- Practice questions (multiple-choice, narrative, and application questions)
- Interactive learning activities such as flashcards, quizzes, and trivia games
- Discussion board with a tutor available to answer course related questions
Online tutorials are included with the purchase of a textbook from the Insurance Institute and are not sold separately. Access to the online tutorial is provided immediately on purchase and expires 365 days from the date of purchase.
