All course work will be performed through the online version of Insurance-Schools.com Public Insurance Adjuster course in an open discussion classroom setting. This is being done for many reasons, I will list just a few.
- We have administrative rights to all tests and scores taken, and can submit those, as needed by the department, to confirm the effectiveness, participation, and general amount of time spent by time logged in, and tests taken. (Attendance, roll call, and exit.)
- The material provided by Insurance-Schools.com has already been approved by the department and will not be changed or deviated from in our classrooms. We will actually discuss them in great detail, with different scenarios.
- Insurance-Schools.com incorporates any new legislation affecting the rules that govern us, as you can see, all versions above carry the latest updates.
- We used the very same program to obtain our initial Texas license, and have used them whenever necessary to obtain licensure in other states.
- Courses will be administered via laptops we provide, specifically and solely for this purpose, and will remain in our possession at all times, save for theft, or any other instance out of our control.
What can you expect from this Session?
Students who have taken and successfully completed our course should be able to read and understand common policy language and conditions. This would include exclusions, endorsements, and claim filing procedures. After each 6-hour class day, there will be an additional 2 hours dedicated to the open discussion, and actual application, based off our collective knowledge in the field. This equivalates to 40 actual classroom hours, more than the required 24. Finally, if the student is not already licensed, that student should be able to schedule, take, and pass the exam provided by Pearson VUE, then be capable of performing their duties once a license is obtained.
We look forward to helping insurance professionals maintain the highest standards possible, by raising those very standards.
