Which means for every year I need 25hrs of CEU.
That's true, but that requirement is due 365 days from when you pass the exam. There are a number of online courses you can take that satisfy that requirement - I usually use one or the other for my IL license, which is the starting point for all my other licenses (I've got various licenses in 12 or 14 states - I don't really keep track). I can't remember if California residents agents (which is what you're applying for; I have a nonresident license) have to have classroom time or not, but I think you're wasting your time reviewing the law since it's not going to help you in an online course, when you retake the exam or with your CEU credits since it's not going to be an approved study.

In my experience CA doesn't change their laws as quickly as you seem to think - with the exception of WC. They've monkeyed with that quite a bit over the last few years, which is why there's a hard market there for that line. Auto and most other lines they've left alone for the most part, with the exception being some changes to laws governing GL for the construction industry (something near and dear to my heart).

But it's your time; you spend it as you see fit.
