CPCU and Opportunities
Posted: Fri Mar 11, 2011 8:33 pm
Hi all,
I was wondering what those of you in hiring positions or with relevant experience in the industry think about the advantages of having a CPCU. Is it as advantageous as The Institutes proclaims it to be? Would you consider a CPCU or an MBA to be more advantageous in the industry? For perspective, my goal is to move from the agency side of the business into underwriting and perhaps other operations on the company side.
I was planning on pursuing an MBA but decided on the CPCU instead, thinking it is more insurance-driven (and therefore relevant) and of course, easier to complete than an MBA program.
Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance,
Paul
