A national insurance advisory organization and an insurance training organization said they have formed a new partnership to provide mutual access to educational and promotional materials.

The Wheaton, Ill.-based American Association of Insurance Services said it will provide online access to its farm- and construction-related insurance program resources to the Insurance Skills Center (ISC), a California-based insurance training organization.

AAIS develops policy forms and rating information used by more than 600 property-casualty insurance companies throughout the U.S., and ISC sponsors conferences and develops curriculum for p-c professionals to earn the designations of agribusiness and farm insurance specialist (AFIS) and certified construction insurance specialist (CCIS).

Certain AAIS programs are taught as part of the curricula for those designations, and ISC staff will now have direct access to applicable forms and manual pages over the AAISdirect Internet service, it was explained

For several years, AAIS and ISC have informally coordinated efforts to expand awareness of the conferences and the sessions that include training on AAIS forms. This new partnership formalizes and expands on the ways the organizations will work together, the groups said.

“This partnership builds on our mutual commitment to agricultural and construction insurance,” says Rick Maka, AAIS director of marketing. “We are working to provide property-casualty professionals with information and training on standardized products for those market segments.”

ISC conference and designation information is available online at www.insuranceskillscenter.com.
