L’assurance est présente dans tous les aspects de votre vie

POURQUOI N’Y FERIEZ-VOUS PAS CARRIÈRE

What is an Ambassador?

To help motivate and inspire young people to think about the insurance industry as a possible career path, we have developed the Ambassador Program. Our trained Ambassadors are experienced industry professionals who volunteer their time to share their own educational and career journeys with students and career seekers. From a first hand perspective, they directly communicate how much our industry has to offer, and often offer personal stories about their satisfying and ever-changing careers.

As “spokespeople,” they help to put a “face to the insurance industry” through classroom presentations and career fairs at both the secondary and post-secondary level.

When an Ambassador is invited to speak, participants receive the benefit of learning what an insurance industry professional has to say about how insurance helps people to bring peace of mind to their lives and help them through times of loss. Ambassadors can bring a career in insurance to life. They can take their audience inside an industry that’s varied, challenging and surprisingly interesting.

The presentations include interactive activities, a video presentation and handouts and giveaways for each participant. With Ambassadors throughout the country, our goal is to demonstrate that there may be ‘a place for you in insurance no matter what your interests are.
