k CII insurance qualifications framework

“Professionalism is central to our business – we are an enthusiastic signatory to the Aldermanbury Declaration and are proud to have achieved corporate Chartered Insurers status. Knowledge and technical capability are building blocks of our success, and CII qualifications, from the Certificate through to Fellowship, are a key element of our skills development programme for both technical and non-technical roles.

We encourage and fund study for CII examinations because the resulting qualifications send out such a powerful message to clients and business partners. They inspire consumer and regulatory confidence whilst enhancing technical knowledge and career development for the individual. We provide comprehensive learning and revision support including face-to-face training courses, interactive on-line study and continuous assessment enrolment, and pay for CII membership for our staff where appropriate, again promoting the importance of professionalism in all we do.

Jo SmithHead of Technical Training Zurich Insurance plc ”

CII qualifications are an incredibly important part of the Towergate Business School – the qualification structure allows people to study relevant subjects at the right level and enables us to promote career development to support the business. Our technical insurance roles at Towergate require an appropriate CII qualification and all our people have an active CPD programme. Our competency framework maps CII qualifications to roles and is integral to the development requirements of all employees. We are hugely proud to be Chartered Insurance Brokers and Chartered Insurers, which evidence our commitment to employee development and the provision of excellent customer service.

Fiona AndrewsPartner & Group Head of Organisational DevelopmentTowergate Insurance

k CII insurance qualifications framework

“Professionalism is central to our business – we are an enthusiastic signatory to the Aldermanbury Declaration and are proud to have achieved corporate Chartered Insurers status. Knowledge and technical capability are building blocks of our success, and CII qualifications, from the Certificate through to Fellowship, are a key element of our skills development programme for both technical and non-technical roles.

We encourage and fund study for CII examinations because the resulting qualifications send out such a powerful message to clients and business partners. They inspire consumer and regulatory confidence whilst enhancing technical knowledge and career development for the individual. We provide comprehensive learning and revision support including face-to-face training courses, interactive on-line study and continuous assessment enrolment, and pay for CII membership for our staff where appropriate, again promoting the importance of professionalism in all we do.

Jo SmithHead of Technical Training Zurich Insurance plc ”

CII qualifications are an incredibly important part of the Towergate Business School – the qualification structure allows people to study relevant subjects at the right level and enables us to promote career development to support the business. Our technical insurance roles at Towergate require an appropriate CII qualification and all our people have an active CPD programme. Our competency framework maps CII qualifications to roles and is integral to the development requirements of all employees. We are hugely proud to be Chartered Insurance Brokers and Chartered Insurers, which evidence our commitment to employee development and the provision of excellent customer service.
