Choose a career

that builds on

your education

What are you good at? What kind of career is going to

contribute to the quality of your life? No matter what

your answer, you may be surprised to learn that the

insurance industry has a career path that could take

you exactly where you want to go.

Insurance affects virtually everything we do in life and in business.

And because insurance is all around us, the industry has a wide variety

of careers to match your ambitions. One way to a great career in Canada’s

property & casualty insurance industry is through post-secondary

education. Insurance and Risk Management programs are offered at

BCIT, Mount Royal, Grant MacEwan, University of Calgary, and SIAST.
