The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) is accepting applications for the 2011 consumer liaison program, which promotes consumer representation and interaction with the NAIC members by providing funding for qualified consumer representatives to participate in NAIC meetings. The NAIC defines a consumer organization as a national, state or local organization that serves to protect the interests of consumers as they relate to the regulation of insurance.
In order to qualify for funding, a candidate must:
- Have a commitment to representing consumer interests in insurance regulation
- Represent a non-profit organization
- Be willing to fully participate in NAIC national meetings and related conference calls
- Have demonstrated expertise and experience on insurance-related issues addressed by the NAIC
- Not have obligations or commitments to an industry that conflict with his/her responsibilities to represent consumer interests
- Require NAIC funding in order to fully participate in NAIC national meetings and conference calls.
Consumer organizations which do not want or need to request funding can apply for an unfunded consumer representative position.
The application deadline is Oct. 31. All applicants are required to complete the application and attach all documents requested. Applicants will be notified in December regarding their selection as a funded or unfunded consumer representative.
