The National Alliance for Insurance Education and Research
Creating, developing, and delivering practical continuing education programs for everyone involved in the insurance and risk management industries is the challenge and purpose of The National Alliance for Insurance Education & Research.
More than 130,000 participants attend at least one of our 2,200+ programs, conducted in all 50 states and throughout the Caribbean in the course of just one year.
With a legacy that began in 1969, The National Alliance is recognized across the nation as the best source for continuing education credits, designation opportunities, and concrete knowledge for insurance and risk management professionals of every experience level.
Society of Certified Insurance Counselors
The Certified Insurance Counselors (CIC) Program has been the insurance industry's premier, proven source for practical, real-world education since 1969.
The five CIC institutes are:
- Personal Lines
- Commercial Casualty
- Commercial Property
- Life & Health
- Agency Management
More than 300 CIC institutes are conducted each year in major cities throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Designed to cover important aspects of the insurance field, each institute is 20 hours of instruction, followed by an optional examination.
This is the proof. A CIC is recognized throughout the industry as a true professional, as someone who has achieved. The CIC designation means you have the knowledge, personal dedication, and expertise to succeed in an ever-changing, demanding profession.
Independent Agents and Brokers
The Insurance Agents & Brokers (IA&B) organization is a partnership of three agents' associations working together to deliver pre-eminent programs, products and services for IA&B members, all provided by the associations’ management arm, the Insurance Agents & Brokers Service Group. Lead by dedicated agent volunteers and staffed by 40 professionals, the IA&B organization is recognized and respected nationally for its industry leading efforts in agent professional development, advocacy, industry information and knowledge base, communications and more.
