To support members, the Institute has developed a comprehensive Career Pathway for the General Insurance sector – this pathway aligns with Institute qualifications and member career milestones. We hope the Career Pathway will help attract new talent into the sector by showcasing the diverse and rewarding careers on offer.

    If you already hold an APA, the CIP designation will equip you to advance your career by broadening your product and industry knowledge.

    Grow in confidence with our advanced professional qualification, which helps you achieve more by enhancing your technical insurance knowledge and developing key management skills such as critical thinking, report writing, research, and problem-solving.
