The Hindu Business Line : TBG offers online course for insurance marketers

TO GROOM a new breed of professionals in the growing insurance sector, The Boston Group (TBG), in collaboration with College of Insurance and Financial Planning and International Institute of Insurance and Finance (IIIF), has launched what it claims is the first online course for insurance sales professionals, through their dedicated finance portal.

The Chairman of Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA), Mr C.S.Rao, who commissioned the online course here, said that the opening up of the insurance sector had brought in a competitive environment leading to the introduction of a variety of insurance products and distribution channels. The Director of IIIF, Dr Rao Machiraju, said . The course was designed such that people can enrol as individuals or as corporate entities and get trained for better career prospects.

The CLIS or Certificate Course in Life Insurance Salesmanship has been developed on The TBG Intralearn platform and seeks to bridge the widening gap between required knowledge levels and skills of application of the knowledge through professional services. The course involves a ten-step customer-centric approach to a career in insurance.

TBG has developed the `Financial Campus India' programme to reach out e-learning technologies to more people.
