Fall is a busy time here at the ILScorp offices with live classes, new courses being launched and continuing education deadlines coming up in Ontario and Alberta.
We want to wish good luck to the approximately 30 students taking part in West Coast Training’s Live Immersion Class in Vancouver this week. By Friday, they’ll be writing their ILS Introduction to General Insurance level 1 licensing exams, and be ready to start their insurance careers! These classes have an average pass rate of 80-85%, thanks in part to the dynamic insurance training by Todd Hochban. But even if you can’t make it to Vancouver, you can still learn from Todd through the ILS online video version of the insurance licensing program.
Some of our team will also be heading to the Westin Bear Mountain Resort in Victoria in a few weeks to host a customized 5-day insurance training course for a group of commercial insurance agents from across Western Canada.
Our development staff have been working hard as we’ve launched new online courses in recent weeks, including: two courses for ICBC Autoplan insurance agents in BC; and an Introduction to Public Sector Procurement, including one specific to Atlantic Canada. These courses, along with the more than 50 recently updated and re-accredited Continuing Education courses, can all be purchased from the ILScorp website.
And the phones and emails are keeping our customer service staff busy, as insurance professionals in Ontario are nearing their continuing education deadline of Sept. 30. This is followed a month later by the Alberta insurance CE deadline of Oct.31. Our staff are here to help Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. – 5 pm Pacific Time at 1-800-404-2211, or you can register for your courses online anytime.
