ILScorp teams with Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Company as exclusive provider of online Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package training
February 11, 2009 — Courtenay, BC ILScorp has paired with the Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Company to be the exclusive provider of training for Wawanesa’s new Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package.
The new insurance package caters to a full range of restaurants, from fine dining to quick service and everything in between.
“This is an exciting new product from Wawanesa,” said Ken MacRae, ILScorp Vice President and CEO. “However, when any new insurance product is introduced, it’s important for brokers and support staff to really understand what they are selling.”
Online training for this Wawanesa product is available exclusively from ILScorp. The streamingvideo course brings the classroom experience to brokers and staff across the country. Available at www.ilscorp.com 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the Wawanesa Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package Course is just one of over half of a dozen courses designed by ILScorp that is based on Wawanesa wordings.
The Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package Course is instructed by long-time insurance educator Todd Hochban. Successful completion of the course will give brokers a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the product, as well as two continuing education (CE) credits in jurisdictions where they are required.
The Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package includes coverages for Commercial General Liability with a base limit of $2,000,000, building and contents and boiler and machinery coverage. As well, the Chef’s Specialty Enhancement Endorsement is available to enhance basic coverages while adding additional coverages for risks unique to the restaurant industry.
The Enhancement Endorsement includes the following coverages:
- Business Income – Profits including Reported Tips
- Crime Coverages
- Food Contamination Coverage
- Merchandise Withdrawal Expenses Coverage
- Wine Valuation Coverage
“We have always enjoyed working with Wawanesa,” said Mr. MacRae. “Wawanesa was one of the first companies to embrace ILScorp’s brand of online training. Throughout the past decade, we’ve been happy to offer customized text and video courses to compliment their products.”
“Offering training on Wawanesa’s new Chef’s Specialty Insurance Package was a logical move,” he added. “Brokers and staff from around the country can receive in-depth training online, whenever they choose and from wherever they choose.”
ILScorp is an industry leader in insurance broker education in Canada. They were the first independent organization to offer online training, as well as the first to offer widespread training courses in a video-streaming format.
