This topic is coming up a lot lately. There appears to be confusion about whether work experience satisfies the training program requirement, or vice versa.
In a nutshell, if you are applying for a California Designated Representative or Exemptee License, you’ll have to meet both the work experience requirement, and the training program requirement (i.e., completing a training program that addresses key subjects/topics).
Work experience does not substitute for the training program, and the training program does not substitute for work experience.
