Things to consider
The programme is open to anyone with or without insurance experience. You may already be in the sector and want to work with an employer that will support you with both time and training within your contractual hours to complete the qualifications. You will need to have a full UK driving licence at the end of the 3 years to visit clients.
Knowledge is one of our core values. As such, this will be a 3-year programme starting with a 12-month programme to achieve the Certificate level qualification and then a second programme of 24 months to get to Diploma.
Your working week:
20% of your time (1 day) will be spent studying remotely including:
· Reading/researching and writing assignments/attending exams with a focus on the general insurance marketplace, insurance law, accounting principles, governance as well as how insurance products operate including liabilities and property damage/business interruption.
· Attending seminars and workshops including those provided by your trainer, insurers, and the Chartered Insurance Institute.

What to expect at the end of your apprenticeship
