Renaissance Reinsurance is again offering to sponsor 5 Bermuda College students to attend the Reinsurance Association of America ReUnderwriting 2-day seminar being held at the Fairmont Hamilton Princess on March 20-21, 2012. Students who recently graduated university and have not yet entered the insurance industry can also apply.
This year the seminar is on Reinsurance Underwriting. It is a two-day interactive program that will expand underwriting expertise and enhance technical skills.
Although designed for professionals, it is a great opportunity for students and recent graduates to gain an understanding of underwriting which they may not have come across in their academic studies, as well as being a wonderful opportunity to network with a great cross-section of Bermuda’s insurance professionals. Past student attendees have gained a lot from the experience. More information…
ReUnderwriting awards CPE, CPCU and CLE (including ethics) continuing education credits.
Apply online through BermudaScholarships.com.
Application Deadline: March 1st
