Apply for or renew an occupational school sales representative's license

Learn how to apply for or renew an occupational school sales representative's license in Massachusetts.

General instructions

The school, not the sales representative, must submit the completed license or renewal application to the Division of Occupational Licensure (DOL).

Application and renewal fee

All applicants must pay a non-refundable application fee of $1,000. You may pay the fee online at the end of the application process either by check or credit card. There is a convenience fee for payments. 

Application Timeline

You have nine (9) months from the date of your initial application submission to complete your application for an occupational school sales representative. If your application remains incomplete after nine (9) months have elapsed from your date of submission, your application will be closed.  After that time, to obtain a license as an occupational school sales representative, you must submit a new application to DOL and pay a new application fee.

Renewal Timeline

The eLIPSE platform will allow schools to begin submitting a renewal application 90 days before license expiration. Renewal applications are due 60 days before license expiration. If you submit a renewal application less than 60 days before license expiration, you will be assessed a late fee of $200, which will be added to your renewal fee.

  4. If the new representative is being added to an existing blanket bond, you must get a copy of the blanket bond and an updated Attachment A from the insurance company that lists the names of the school's sales representatives covered by the bond.

If the new representative is not being added to an existing bond, please provide a $1,000 bond for the representative.

How to apply

Create an eLIPSE account. If you do not already have an account with MyMassGov, when you log-in to eLIPSE for the first time, you will need to create a MyMassGov account. Either the individual who will handle the application or the owner of the prospective school should create a MyMassGov account.
