The course is open to members who have attained the level of Senior Associate CIP or higher and who have completed an approved ANZIIF qualification in General Insurance, Insurance Broking, Life Insurance, Loss Adjusting, Risk Management or Financial Planning.

COURSE STRUCTURE

The degree consists of 24 subjects. This includes ten insurance subjects credited against your previous ANZIIF study or prior study/experience and 14 non-insurance subjects, including electives. The course is completed via distance education.
