Testimonials

 

Teri Holmes, Broking New Gen, 2023-24 Programme - The New Generation programme has been a fantastic opportunity to meet other talented individuals across the industry and get involved in something a bit different to my day job. The project itself gave us total freedom to explore any topic affecting the industry and each of the anchor days in London have been well organised and interesting, particularly the trip to the Houses of Parliament. The programme has been invaluable to both my professional and personal development and I would recommend it to anyone. 

Chantal Abbott-Devaney, Senior Schemes Underwriter at AXA & Underwriting New Gen, 2022-23 Programme said: “The New Generation Programme 22/23 has been an amazing experience thus far and has offered some really valuable insight into wider areas of the market. It’s great to work alongside like-minded individuals, looking at ways we can contribute to the industry we all work with in, and love. Getting the opportunity to enter the inner sanctum of the Houses of Parliament, and discussing our project ideas with the CII board, as well as working alongside those within the CII to consider how we could bring our project to life has been invaluable, and really enjoyable so far. I couldn’t recommend the programme enough to others – if you are considering applying, go for it, there is nothing to lose, and everything to gain”

Charlotte West, Account Executive at WTW & Broking New Gen, 2022-23 Programme said: “The CII New Gen programme has been a brilliant way to help expand my network across the industry and I have been able to meet and work with a number of inspiring driven individuals. We have all benefited greatly and grown as professionals by taking part in the programme and all the learning opportunities it offers.”

Thomas Hedges, Senior Pricing Analyst at Munich Re & Underwriting New Gen, 2022-23 Programme said: "I would highly recommend applying to the New Gen programme because it is an excellent opportunity to expand your insurance horizons beyond your day-to-day job and qualifications. It has opened up the industry to me in ways I never anticipated through networking with fellow professionals, speaking to senior figures in the industry, and producing a project that will have an impact on the industry."

Craig Tracey Former MP said: “The New Generation Group participants always impress me with their enthusiasm and knowledge of the market. This programme gives both the insurance profession and policymakers to engage on key issues facing society and the insurance sector. I look forward to hearing about their ideas for increasing trust in insurance.”
