Courses Built to Strengthen Real-World Insurance Skills

Our courses focus on the fundamentals insurance professionals need to succeed across all agencies, carriers and roles. We are not looking to train the masses through self-guided on demand education. Our goal is to engage the students in a LIVE setting where we can field their questions in real-time classroom environment as they arise during our classes.

What makes our training different:

  • ISO and NCCI-based instruction with universal application

  • Systematic policy interpretation and coverage analysis

  • Practical explanations of complex insurance concepts

  • Skills that reduce E&O exposure and improve confidence

Policy analysis is a core component of every course. Students learn how to evaluate coverage beyond limits and deductibles to determine whether coverage is better, the same, or less than what an insured currently has.

Training covers Commercial and Personal Lines, with customization available to meet your organization’s needs. While our clients tend to be agents and brokers, there is also a need out there at the carrier level to have P&C onboarding for new hires or those changing roles.
