We firmly believe that enhanced technical skills and capability improves business performance and supports our ultimate aim of providing customers with an exceptional experience.
CII qualifications are key to this strategy, not only for our own employees, but also for our business partners.
This is why we introduced our Scholarship Programme, in which we support brokers to achieve the Diploma in Insurance. And why we maintain accreditation for our internal training programmes, so that our people can earn credits in the CII qualifications framework through their learning at work.
We are proud of our commitment to the highest technical and ethical standards and our Chartered Insurers status helps demonstrate this commitment to potential recruits, business partners and customers alike.
