The Insurance School of Chicago (ISC) was established in 1969 by the Insurance Society of Chicago. ISC provides quality education through several different approaches, including interactive classes and seminars and self-study materials. ISC’s cornerstone is the designation programs developed by the American Institute for Chartered Property Casualty Underwriters (AICPCU) and the Insurance Institute of America (IIA). The CPCU/IIA designations are recognized by all major employers as the sign of individuals who care about their craft and are willing to work hard to achieve the skills needed. In addition to CPCU and IIA classes, ISC provides seminars for those who wish to stay current with focused information on relevant industry topics. Our content experts develop their own seminar material based on their particular areas of expertise. In-house training programs based on either our class or seminar curricula can be tailored to your company’s particular needs. All classes and seminars are filed with the Illinois Department of Insurance and are eligible for the continuing education credit necessary for annual renewal of an Illinois Insurance Producer’s license. In addition, 15-hour home-study courses are available from ISC. ISC offers pre-licensing classes for those preparing to take the Illinois Insurance Producer’s license exam. In addition, ISC operates a limited bookstore operation offering textbooks produced through the Institutes, as well as various self-help study tools. We hope you will choose ISC as your source for insurance education. The Insurance Society of Chicago has served the Chicago-area insurance, risk management, and financial services community for nearly 50 years. In 1999, the Society’s operating arm, the Insurance School of Chicago, celebrated its 30th anniversary. Thanks to the support of dozens of area employers, the Insurance School has helped thousands of students broaden their knowledge, enhance their skills, and learn to deal professionally and ethically with the challenges of a rapidly changing industry. As the School explores new instructional approaches in response to industry change, the Society itself is changing, and we would like to invite you to become a Society member. The following response form spells out the benefits and costs of Society membership. If your employer elects to become a Society member, you’ll have access to some of these benefits as an employee – but we hope you’ll also want to become a Society member yourself. The primary mission of the Society and the School is to foster quality education and training programs to strengthen the professionalism and ethical standards of those who work in insurance, risk management, and financial services in the greater Chicago area. By enrolling in ISC classes and seminars over the years, many have already made an important commitment to this vital mission. We hope you will formalize this commitment by joining the Insurance Society of Chicago now...
