Claims College

“After 28.5 years in the claims industry, I thought all courses in Level 1 were great.  Looking back, I'm glad I opted to attend instead of simply test out of Level 1. It gave me opportunity to add insight to younger adjusters in the class and share my experiences.”
2021 Student

Here’s What the Class of 2021 Said…

“I most enjoyed the litigation class and the mock trial.”
