It’s National Apprenticeship week this week and whilst I am on the train to London to watch one of my apprentices present at an Apprentice Taskforce event with Davies Talent Solutions at Lloyds of London, I figured it would be a really good time to reflect. Most of my adult life has been spent working in the insurance industry, and completing an apprenticeship of my own really set me up for a successful career in this great industry. I remember being a little unsure about enrolling on an apprenticeship in insurance and why wouldn’t I be. When I was leaving school there was a bit of a stigma around apprenticeships. My understanding of an apprenticeship was that you would be going to work for a local tradesman making cups of tea and doing a bit of labour for minimum pay. How wrong could I be! I decided to go for it, probably for the wrong reasons, as ultimately it seemed the best route to gain my professional qualifications, however what I actually gained was so much more than that. For me apprenticeships are how the insurance industry, and all industries for that matter, will continue to thrive by bringing ambitious individuals into the industry and providing them with not only the knowledge but also the skills and behaviours to drive the industry forward. One of the most rewarding feelings working in this industry is providing my learners with skills and behaviours that are often taken for granted, and watching them grow as individuals. #apprenticeships #Davies #insurance #insuranceindustry #nationalapprenticeshipweek #NAW2024

This week is #NationalApprenticeshipWeek 2024, the 17th annual celebration of the value, benefits and opportunities that apprenticeships offer to individuals, businesses, and the wider economy. This year’s theme, “Skills for Life”, encourages people to consider how apprenticeships allow individuals to develop the skills, knowledge and experience to build a rewarding career, and aid businesses in developing their workforce’s skills to equip them for the future. To celebrate National Apprenticeship Week, UKGI Learning Solutions have released a new course to support new entrants in developing skills and knowledge key to insurance broking: ⭐Insurance Broking- The Essentials!⭐ The insurance industry has long struggled to entice and retain new recruits to replenish a retiring workforce. It also needs to attract those with diverse skillsets and innovative approaches to aid the sector in navigating changes, such the proliferation of AI and technology. Apprenticeships have been invaluable, allowing fresh talent the opportunity to access the industry, gain the skills and knowledge needed to progress and providing a clear career path with continuous training opportunities, highlighting that a role in insurance is not just a job, but a profession which offers the prospect of ongoing progression and development. We are celebrating Apprenticeships by widening our offering to support and nurture both new entrants to the industry and existing employees looking to boost their skills and experience. The new ‘Insurance Broking- The Essentials’ course caters for those new to insurance broking and provides a key, foundational knowledge of; the role and its functions, the sale of insurance products and services to clients, legal features of the broker-client relationship, and conduct and culture within insurance broking. It also provides an outline of the eight core competencies set out by the FCA. #apprenticeships #insurancesector #insurancebroker #skillsforlife #training #NAW24

Elevating the Insurance Industry Through Apprenticeships   As we navigate the talent landscape of the insurance industry, it is important to spotlight the incredible impact apprenticeships can have on finding new and diverse talent to fill your talent needs.   Building a Strong Foundation: Apprenticeships can serve as a cornerstone for cultivating the next generation of insurance professionals. They provide a focused learning experience, providing both hands on training and classroom instruction.   Tailored Skill Development: Apprenticeships allow us to tailor skill development programs, ensuring that new employees not only grasp the fundamentals but also adapt to the latest industry trends.   Mentorship and Knowledge Transfer: Apprenticeships facilitate a transfer of knowledge from seasoned professionals to the emerging workforce. Mentorship programs create an environment where valuable insights are shared, fostering a culture of continuous learning.   Diversity and Inclusion: Apprenticeships play a pivotal role in promoting diversity and inclusion within the industry. By providing accessible entry points for individuals from various backgrounds, we are cultivating a workforce that reflects the diverse perspectives of our client base. Embracing diversity not only enriches our workplace culture but also enhances our ability to understand and serve a broad spectrum of clients.   Addressing the Talent Gap: The insurance industry is experiencing a talent gap, and apprenticeships offer a strategic solution. By actively participating in apprenticeship programs, companies can contribute to closing this gap, ensuring a pipeline of skilled professionals.   If you have questions or want to discuss adopting apprenticeship into your talent acquisition strategy, please reach out to me here at the Greater Cleveland Partnership and let's discuss. #InsuranceIndustry #Apprenticeships #FutureLeaders #Innovation #CareerDevelopment #InsuranceProfessionals #Talent #Allin
