To achieve maximum potential, professionals cannot stop learning after a graduation ceremony or when the diploma arrives in the mail. True professional success means making a continuous effort to upgrade goals and knowledge through both experience and deliberate steps to stay abreast of new information. It is important to stay ahead of the game, and more importantly, stay ahead of the competition.
After all, who doesn't like to be the go-to person at the office for key questions, or the one at the meetings who has all the answers? Who wouldn't like to be referred to as the resident expert not only in the office, but within the industry that they work? Continuing education courses are an important means to reach that end.
In any career, hard work and constant learning breeds success. This same attitude and drive should apply in the insurance industry, but unfortunately, the reality is that if continuing education courses weren't required to stay licensed, it's likely that no one would show up. With different requirements throughout the country, continuing education is often looked at as a nuisance. However, it is important to remember the benefits of these required courses.
