Welcome – from President Sharon Theobald

Welcome to the Q12024 edition of our newsletter, and what a busy start to the year it has been!

We continue to provide our members with a diverse range of workshops, webinars and training. As well as putting on some in-person events facilitating networking, we remain focused on ensuring that our events are accessible to all, and we continue to provide a varied programme of CPD sessions. Our most recent event was our ‘Celebrating Success’ Event, and you can find a full write up, along with some photos below.

As we approach an end to another Presidential year, with our AGM scheduled for 10^th April 2024, we would like to thank our outgoing President, Sharon Theobald for her leadership, support and efforts over the last 12 months.

Celebrating Success 2024 Event

The annual Celebrating Success Event was introduced last year, intending to recognise the success of members in the region who have achieved a CII or PFS qualification in the last year.

On Thursday 7th March 2024 the Insurance Institute of Norwich hosted its 2nd Celebrating Success Event at St Andrews Brewhouse, and with complimentary food and drink on offer, it was a fantastic night full of networking and celebration.

Members from various local business including but not limited to Marsh, Aviva, Alan Boswell, PIB and Crawfords attended with various qualification achievement being celebrated ranging from the Certificate through to the Advanced Diploma qualifications. The turnout was excellent, with over 40 people in attendance. We hope everyone who joined us had a thoroughly enjoyable evening and we look forward to seeing you at future events.

We also thank St Andrews Brewhouse for their excellent hospitality.

Are you studying for qualification at present? Do you hope to have passed a CII or PFS qualification during 2024?

If so, make sure the Insurance Institute of Norwich is assigned as the local institute on your MyCII so we have a record of your local membership for future events. We plan to host the next Celebrating Success event celebrating 2024 achievers in Q12025, and would love to invite and connect with as many newly qualified members as possible!

Additionally, we recommend you make sure the ‘manage your preferences’ section under MyCII is updated with your agreement to receive email communications from the local institute.
