Insurance Management – Property and Casualty
Ontario Graduate Certificate
Program Code: IM511
Campus: IGS, North
Length: 3 semesters starting in September
Property and Casualty (P&C) insurance is one of the largest and most lucrative industries in the country. This industry added 12,000 jobs since the last recession in 2008 and hired program graduates during the lockdown portion of the pandemic. The P&C insurance industry is also one that is looking for high-performing graduates, as demographic research anticipates that many people will be retiring from the industry in the next five years. Graduates from our program are prepared to take on a variety of entry-level management career paths in this rapidly growing sector. Whether you enjoy working with numbers, doing research, solving problems or working with people, you can find your place in the P&C insurance in such roles as an underwriter, loss adjuster, or agent with an insurance company or in a brokerage firm.
In addition to learning the fundamentals of these three main functional areas, students also gain transferable skills in business communications; insurance accounting and metrics; marketing, sales, and customer service; and project management, both through in-class instruction and a work placement that provides real-world experience. Students will also have a chance to engage with industry thought leaders by way of conversations, guest speaking events, and mock interviews throughout the entire program.
Get hands-on experience in the industry with a 160-hour (minimum) work placement that will give you the opportunity to apply what you have learned in the classroom. Students initiate the placement with the aid of faculty, targeting companies in and around the Greater Toronto Area. Placements may be completed full time in the third semester.
