Continuing education
written by practitioners.
Six courses. 29 CE credits. Built and delivered by Winmar Vancouver, an Insurance Council of BC accredited course provider — for general insurance agents, brokers, and adjusters working in British Columbia.
The Catalogue
Six courses, sequenced to build claim-side fluency.
Each course is taught by a working practitioner — a senior insurance advisor or a former adjuster turned project manager — and built around the files, standards, and case law that brokers and adjusters actually see in BC.
