New Product Training University at NAILBA Agency Management Institute Sold Out

(Fairfax, Va.) In direct response to a needs assessment identifying product marketing, underwriting and case management training for staff as a key priority for its member agencies, the National Association of Independent Life Brokerage Agencies (NAILBA) is hosting its first-ever Agency Management Institute (AMI) May 28-29 in Lombard, IL.

AMI workshops will focus on best practices in underwriting, case management, and file building.  In addition, the Institute will also feature the NAILBA Product Training University (PTU), a sold-out forum offering product presentations followed by round-table “speed-dating” where attendees will have the opportunity to meet with company representatives on a small-group basis to discuss that company’s products and services related to the product type. 

PTU sponsors include Agency Works, American General Life Companies, APPS, Coventry, Credit Suisse, EbixExchange, ExamOne, E-Z Data, Foresters Equity Services, Inc., ING, InsuranceNewsNet, Legal & General/Banner Life/William Penn, MetLife, Mutual of Omaha, PaperClip, Inc., Portamedic, Prudential, Rolling Solutions-Xrae, Superior Mobile Medics, and West Coast Life.

 “We are very excited about our first-of-its-kind Product Training University,” stated NAILBA Executive Director Jack Chiasson.  “Not only will agency staff receive straight talk from PTU sponsors about how best to use and market the products their agency distributes, but they will receive it in one setting--making it the most cost-effective session available to brokerage agencies today.”

While there are no longer any available tables for the Product Training University, there are still sponsorships available.  For more information, visit www.nailba.org or call NAILBA Director of Business Development Susan D. Haning at (703) 383-3068.
