Continuing Education Options at Wyatt Consulting & Training, Inc.

Today Wyatt Training delivers a wide variety of insurance continuing education programs through a variety of methods. In addition the company will be offering a number of products to help the agent become more effective in day-to-day business. Whether it is an individual seminar or a program or product tailored to your specific requirements, George W. Wyatt Consulting and Training Inc. is available to serve your needs.

Live Programs

Insurance department-approved continuing education seminars are Wyatt Training's core product. These live programs are advertised by the company and regularly presented by staff instructors in Kansas, western Missouri and South Dakota. Seminars are also presented in other states on a contract basis for companies and community colleges. Company contract programs become more effective when built around a company's specific documents and policies. Services available to company clients include: course design, insurance department filing and record keeping.
Fiber optic networks are the distance-learning classrooms of the new millennium. Wyatt Training, in cooperation with community colleges in Iowa, has presented programs by this method to remote sites on an interactive basis.

Internet Courses

This year, Wyatt Training expanded even further with the introduction of approved insurance continuing education courses available through the internet. At least 30 community colleges in Kansas, Iowa and South Dakota work with the company to provide CE credit for completing at least one of the eight different unit studies available from Wyatt Training. Current units include six Property & Casualty courses and one Ethics course. Life courses will be introduced later in the year. The courses can be completed from home or office via the internet, making them accessible to agents 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The convenience of internet courses often eliminates the need for personal and staff travel and makes earning CE credits even more cost-effective. These programs can also be customized using company-specific forms. Wyatt Training plans to add at least two more courses to its internet repertoire by the end of the year 2000. Additional courses are also under consideration.

Products

In addition to continuing education courses, the company is developing other products to help agents become more effective and better serve their clients. These products include a book of policy checklists, a line of planners the agent can tailor to his specific needs, and a Property & Casualty text ideal for those just entering the business or changing jobs.
