    • Alan Chandler

The Diploma in Insurance programme is open to any member who has already achieved their Certificate in Insurance qualification and works within the East Midlands region, be that in broking, underwriting, claims or another area of the profession.

Over 15 months the institute will hold 16 full day workshops, four for each subject:

M80 Underwriting Practice
M85 Claims Practice
MO5 Insurance Law (compulsory subject)
M92 Insurance Business and Finance (compulsory subject)

The workshops will be a mix of chapter progression and revision workshops.

The programme does NOT include cost of the associated exam enrolment, exam sitting and other support materials. Participants or their employer are expected to pay for associated exams.

With this programme you will be able to cut down on the amount of study time needed to crack the coursework, whilst working with a group of people who are going through the same subjects, and at the end achieving your Diploma in Insurance qualification.

Led by one of the UK's foremost insurance trainers, Alan Chandler, the syllabus will be explained in plain English with practical examples.
