Continuing (CE) and Initial (IE) Education Programs

Comments From Clients

 

“These courses have been a great opportunity for personal development for our experienced underwriters - much needed in the industry!”

“I can't think of a better way to educate and develop underwriters.”

Shirley Glazier
Director of Underwriting
BCBS of Michigan

 

“Participating in Hank’s CE program helps to keep me in the loop regarding the current medical issues in our industry. Underwriters, such as myself, who work off-site, or who are no longer a part of a large underwriting staff, long for the days of updated information and how it applies to underwriting. Hank sorts through this information and puts it into a format that applies to our industry so we can use it to make decisions today that affect and protect the bottom line of tomorrow. No place else can I find this type of assistance!”

“What we at L & G value most is that the CE courses are written by an underwriter for underwriters. Apart from the odd reassurer course there is little practical training for underwriters, especially on subjects which are often a cause for concern, like hepatitis for example. The major advantage of the courses is they are flexible, the underwriters can go through them in their own time, when it suits them. With so many underwriters to train we also find them remarkable value for money. We take training very seriously at L & G and the CE courses are a valuable part of the programme.”

“Hank George, Inc. CE courses are an integral part of our ongoing Underwriter education. They help our Underwriters gain a better understanding of the more commonly-encountered medical conditions. This allows our Underwriters to know what to look for to classify the risk, why they are doing it, and ultimately to execute decisions more effectively. Just as importantly, it helps our Underwriters to explain their decisions effectively and confidently, which builds the trust of the producer, so vital in placements and future business. These courses are a good augmentation to the other training resources and a natural around which to build our monthly Case Clinics.”

“Many thanks for producing your top-notch training program! We purchased both the IE and CE versions. IE provides rock-solid information that will serve us for years to come. CE then takes it to the next level for the more experienced underwriter and claims analyst. Given time and budget constraints, it would be impossible to develop such an industry-specific curriculum in-house.”

“Highly valuable, from trainees to senior veterans!”

“Invaluable to me and my staff! Keep up the good work!”

“The subjects and the readability of the material is great!”

Lisa Genson

“I believe the underwriter will be more effective in retaining the information as a result of the way you have asked and answered the medical questions in these courses. It helps them to ‘think outside the box.’”

Kitty Eargle

“I find [the courses] very informative and educational.”
