The training is intended to provide agents and brokers guidance on assisting businesses and consumers with the enrollment in coverage through the new Exchanges. Training is available in the individual market, the Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) market, or in a combination of the two. The Department has already indicated that due to high demand, access to the training program may be slow or delayed. Slides on the training topics are available by clicking here.
