Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) Reviews

Think what I took away is that I don't need to drill down into tech aspects too much, there are things to learn and memorise but overall I feel more comfortable going into the exam.

Useful initial training on the industry - tour round Lloyd's was the highlight!

Great the course some clarify to the materials

I did feel that i learnt more about the subject matter but probably more from the paperwork than from the trainer. I think the course could have been better completed in half a day.

Overall a very good, informative tutor who was enthusiastic and enjoyed teaching the topic.

Was good. Room a bit dreary. Content very easy but good ground covered - not really sure what this exam is testing that wasn't tested at diploma level

Very interactive, I just feel our current offering is so small it was hard to discuss potential PI risks as we are covering trades like electricians

I received a letter telling me that the course would be at one location, I turned up there to find it was actually at another causing me to arrive late. Another person had the same issue.

In my opinion, too much focus on Banks (the whole morning up till lunch) and they are just one section (albeit substantial!) of FI firms. Some focus on other industries - Investment Managers, Crowdfunders, Asset Managers, etc. - would have been welcome. Also, 40mins were spent reading through old news stories with examples of crime against Banks. I think this would have been more relevant if the examples were related back to policies/issues of coverage rather than simply demonstrating that crime can happen against FI in several ways (which we would already know).

Ruth was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, a great tutor who made you feel at ease. The course content was very interactive which helped bring the group together. I certainly gained a greater understanding of the topic which will benefit me in my job role going forward.
