About WIND
Windstorm Insurance Network, Inc.
The Educational Association for Windstorm Insurance Claims Industry Professionals
®
“
The Windstorm Insurance Network, Inc. is a
proven leader in providing exceptional CEU training
opportunities regarding current trends in the
insurance industry at their annual conferences.
I have had the unique opportunity to meet plaintiff
attorneys and public adjusters at these conferences
which allowed for dialog/discussion and in some
instances, successful resolution of difficult claim files
that may not have otherwise happened short of
costly litigation.
