Progress<br />

The Insurance Institute of Canada (IIC) predicts that the country’s insurance industry will see peak<br />

retirements over the next five years. Prepare to fill vacancies — <strong>and</strong> to lead — in various areas of<br />

insurance by learning to perform necessary functions. This includes: explaining personal <strong>and</strong><br />

commercial aspects of insurance; <strong>and</strong> defining <strong>and</strong> explaining the importance of property, auto,<br />

crime, <strong>and</strong> liability insurance through in-depth interpretations of policy wordings, policy conditions,<br />

<strong>and</strong> statutory conditions. Because it includes seven of 10 insurance industry-specific courses<br />

(the maximum the IIC allows), this Insurance Management program is a pathway to the Chartered<br />

Insurance Professional (CIP) designation.<br />

Notes:<br />

1. You must join IIC (at no cost) when starting the Insurance Management program <strong>and</strong> maintain the free IIC membership for the<br />

duration of your full-time studies.<br />

2. You will be required to purchase insurance industry textbooks <strong>and</strong> resources directly through IIC, <strong>and</strong> to register <strong>and</strong> pay fees<br />

for the insurance industry exams through the IIC based on registration timelines strictly adhered to by the IIC. For more visit,<br />

“The Insurance Management program at Centennial College was<br />

life-changing for me. Even without a background in insurance, the<br />

expertise <strong>and</strong> experience from my professors led me not only to<br />

know about the industry but to a deep underst<strong>and</strong>ing in how the<br />

insurance industry works in real-life business. As a result, within three<br />

months from my graduation, I got my first job in the insurance industry.”<br />
