The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) has today (3 February) reported a 15% annual increase in the number of its insurance qualifications completed in 2024. The improvement comes despite ongoing concerns about talent acquisition within the profession.
The CII saw an increase in completion of the majority of its insurance qualifications in 2024. The most popular CII qualifications over the past year were the Level 3 Certificate in Insurance (3,990 completions), the Level 3 Award in London Market Insurance (1,255 completions), and the Level 4 Diploma in Insurance (1,104 completions).
Significant year-on-year increases were seen for the CII Level 2 Award in Home Insurance (26%), and the CII Level 3 Certificate in Insurance (22%).
Within the uplift is a 14% increase in insurance qualifications completed across the CII’s international market. Most popular internationally were the Level 3 Certificate in Insurance (1,196 completions), the Level 6 Advanced Diploma in Insurance (235 completions), and the Level 4 Diploma in Insurance (166 completions).
Gill White, Executive Director, Member Engagement & Learning, said: “The CII exists to support aspiring professionals to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviours that benefit societies and help to build public confidence in the insurance sector globally. We have seen higher numbers of domestic and international learners, reflecting the value that policymakers and firms place on our learning and assessments around the world. We hope to motivate even greater numbers of learners in coming years by fully embedding the CII’s Professional Map into new qualification pathways and providing an enhanced learning experience that develops the skills our sector needs.”
