Underwriting training without the strain

It's no secret that training can be a burden. Costs are often high and there's rarely a perfect plan to suit your needs.

Web Shield offers classroom courses, online qualifications, an expert blog, and publications to help underwriters advance their knowledge and skills at every level.

What people are saying about Web Shield's training programs and conferences.

Online courses
"We’ve been working with Web Shield as a training provider for some years and think that these online courses are a super addition to their curriculum. They are especially helpful for new joiners, refresher training and staff working in smaller offices, where we’d ordinarily have to fly them out to attend a training course."

Online courses
"Great way to deliver this course content. Even for an old hand, who knew that learning as an adult in the multi-media age with animations, videos, online quizzes and so forth could be fun as well as professionally beneficial?"

RiskConnect conference
"There have been some great speakers, some great topics, it's very interactive. I think that's fantastic. Bringing together risk professionals in the way it is being done here is hugely positive - and I think we should see more of this sort of thing."

Online courses
"It is very good. It is great for beginners and it explains different topics quite well. I also like that each chapter/section is not very long so you can totally manage the speed you want to go through it and easily find any topic you want to listen to again."
