Testimonials
ITC’s D&O and EPLI courses helped me understand the insurance proposals we receive AND to explain to my executive team and board members the risks we can (and cannot) manage through insurance.
Most insurance courses are either pitched at people learning about the subject for the first time or jump straight into advanced topics. The ITC courses do a great job for all learners and I particularly liked the online format since you can either spend time starting from the beginning or quickly move on to the areas of most interest to you. The course material also went beyond insurance policy language – addressing risk management, claims processes, what buyers should consider, and more.
ITC effectively tackles complex subject matters in a very creative manner. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to broaden their understanding.
Great way to enjoy an evolving subject matter. Thank you ITC, enjoyed that!
I’ve been in the insurance industry for over 20 years and this is by far the best educational material I have seen! Great for new and established professionals!
ITC Education is the perfect platform for busy insurance professionals to expand their knowledge in bite-size, manageable, easy & informative modules. The subject matter is well researched and presented in an engaging and easy-to-understand format.
