The summit s objective was to educate and offer recommendations that will motivate key leaders to commit to actions that help to close the workforce gap. A keynote address by Peter L.

The AII will be a hub for both students and the current workforce to research careers in the insurance industry as well as education requirements and ways to enter into the field be it internships or entry level positions willing to train on the job.
