Insurance Fundamentals


The Insurance Fundamentals seminar is put on in conjunction with the Insurance Institute and is a full-day introduction to the business of general insurance. Originally, called "Fundamentally Yours", the seminar was a half-day long and was designed by women for women. The Toronto Insurance Women's Association under its then President Diane Wigley in 1971 initiated the seminar. Today, TIWA members continue to present the material and the attendants are comprised of both men and women.

For over thirty years, the seminar has covered such areas as the insurance policy, insurance terminology, reinsurance, statistics and claims and is designed for those with limited knowledge of the general insurance industry.

Not only newcomers benefit, but also administrative and support staff, accounts personnel, Human Resources and Information Technology employees and junior staff.
