The National Alliance for Insurance Education & Research Launches High School Program

2019 AUG 21 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Daily News -- The National Alliance for Insurance Education & Research announces the creation of a high school program for students interested in attaining an insurance certification. The Certified Insurance Service Representative (CISR) for High School Program is available in Texas this month. The two-year program is conducted over three semesters and includes an optional fourth semester internship to further the education and experience needed to earn the designation.

The National Alliance and the 2019 Insurance Industry Employment and Hiring Outlook Survey revealed that the insurance industry will need to fill 400,000 jobs by the year 2020. The primary job role forecasted to be in high demand was Customer Service/Administration Professionals, giving participants of the program a significant advantage once they enter the workforce. Industry representatives who hold designations from The National Alliance are more likely to be hired and earn higher salaries than peers without designations.

The program includes the CISR designation path as it relates to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) from Career Preparation, Insurance Operations, Money Matters, Statistics and Risk Management, and Business Law.
