    • Jeff Heasman, Founder, Insurance Upskill

A new CPD event where we combine learning with beer!

Join Jeff Heasman and a British Airways captain who will deliver 2 hours of CPD where we will understand What Beer, Aviation and Insurance have in common.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Identify the shared skill sets between an airline captain, a master brewer, and an insurance professional—including decision-making under pressure, precision in execution, and analytical discipline.
  • Understand how structured processes like flight checklists, tasting frameworks, and underwriting protocols rely on similar mental models to manage risk, reduce error, and ensure consistency.
  • Implement a strategy to apply aviation-style discipline and sensory awareness techniques to your daily workflow in insurance, enhancing your ability to evaluate information, mitigate risk, and make more informed decisions.

Guided Beer Tasting: Sample a curated flight of 4 craft beers, with a tasting guide built around sensory analysis and decision-making skills.

Aviation Anecdotes: Real cockpit stories illustrating how critical thinking, calm under pressure, and strict process adherence saved lives and how these principles apply to insurance.
