Insurance Providers Course
Why you need this course:
The providers of insurance fill an important role in addressing the loss exposures of most individuals. Although property-casualty insurance in the U.S. mainly is provided by private insurers, government insurance fills important voids for loss exposures that are difficult for private insurers to address. It is important for insurance professionals to understand the different roles played by private insurers and federal and state government insurers, as well as the programs they offer, to effectively serve their clients.
Upon successful completion of all four modules in this course, you should be able to:
- Describe the various types of private insurers that provide property-casualty insurance:
- Stock insurers
- Mutual insurers
- Reciprocal insurance exchanges
- Lloyd’s
- American Lloyds
- Captive insurers
- Reinsurance companies
- Describe the federal government Social Security program.
- Identify other federal insurance programs.
- Describe common state government insurance programs:
- Workers’ compensation insurance funds
- Unemployment insurance programs
- Automobile insurance plans
- Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR) plans

- Insurance guarantee funds
We recommend that you study the modules in the order presented in the course.
