Canadian University and College Insurance Programs
These full-time programs are designed to make you job-ready for a career in Canada's property and casualty insurance industry. They combine business studies, such as management, finance, communications and accounting, with specialized courses in insurance principles, underwriting and claims.
Developed in close partnership with the insurance industry, these programs let you earn credits toward the Chartered Insurance Professional (CIP) designation from the Insurance Institute of Canada and the Canadian Risk Management (CRM) designation from the Global Risk Management Institute (GRMI). These designations help brokers, agents, risk managers, underwriters, adjusters and loss prevention inspectors advance their careers.
Looking for part-time options?
Licensing, certifications and the CIP designation are also available through part-time study.
