SILA Digest Service
The SILA Digest Service, offered in partnership with RegEd, is a regulatory resource tool that will help you and your producers stay compliant. This tool will keep SILA members current with state insurance licensing and education requirements needed to perform daily licensing tasks. A subscription to the SILA Digest Service will provide monthly updates to crucial regulatory requirements throughout the year.
Each month an email notification is provided to subscribers notifying them when regulatory requirements have changed. A summary Change Log shows subscribers a quick summary of what changes occurred and view the updated FastFacts pages.

The SILA Digest Service subscription fee is $80.00 per year and expires December 31st annually. SILA pro-rates the subscription fees on a quarterly basis.

What is the SILA Digest Service?
Since 1997, SILA has provided conference attendees with the SILA Digest publication, a reference tool that includes state responses to popular licensing and education topics in a spreadsheet format. Because state requirements change often, SILA, through its partnership with RegEd, will keep the contents of the SILA Digest current and subscribers can benefit from regulatory updates to these licensing and education topics throughout the year. The subscription service of providing these updates is what we are calling the SILA Digest Service.
Will we still continue to receive the SILA Digest publication at the conference?

An email notification will be provided to subscribers notifying them when updated information has been posted, and the subscribers can log on to retrieve a summary of what regulatory changes occurred and obtain a copy of the updated documents.
How often will the SILA Digest topics be updated?
