Insurance qualifications

People complete CII insurance qualifications for many reasons. For some, it is a basic job requirement. Others want to expand their knowledge and improve their career prospects. For many, it is simply the desire to achieve professional status in their chosen field.

Whatever your reason for taking a CII qualification, you'll enjoy a host of benefits. These include:

• Progressive and flexible qualification structure - building on existing knowledge at each level, a flexible credit-accumulation system allows you to progress at your own pace.

• Recognition of prior learning - credits are available towards CII qualifications for relevant exams previously undertaken through other awarding bodies, reducing the time taken to complete, eliminating duplication of learning and reducing cost.

• An unrivalled portfolio of learning and revision materials - enabling candidates and organisations to build bespoke learning programmes to suit their particular needs.

• Market-leading designations and Chartered status - success in examinations provide access to the use of designations and titles, that demonstrate achievement and professional standing.

• Flexible examination options - an unrivalled UK-wide network of over 60 public exam centres, as well as over 100 exam centres across the world. Within the UK this includes the facility to sit Certificate-level exams at an online centre, with candidates receiving results immediately. The online exam service allows candidates to choose the date of the exam sitting and enables companies to run sittings in-house.

• Lifelong learning support - credits awarded can be retained for the duration of an individual's working life, counting towards higher level qualifications within the framework.
