The expected schedule for CPCU Society News is:
- February/March
- May/June
- July/August
Do you know a student? Check out the great opportunity offered from the Society:
CPCU-Loman Education Foundation Internship Financial Aid ProgramInternships are a great way to discover the limitless opportunities within the insurance industry. But as a student, sometimes finances can get in the way of you following your path.
That's where the CPCU-Loman Education Foundation Internship Financial Aid Program comes in.
Each year, the CPCU-Loman Education Foundation offers up to $3,000, per student, in financial aid to help students like you offset the costs of professional clothing, travel, housing and other expenses that may prevent you from pursuing an internship in the insurance industry.
To qualify for the CPCU-Loman Education Foundation Internship Financial Aid Program, you must:
✔ Be a college sophomore, junior or senior.
✔ Have applied for, secured, or accepted a paid insurance-related internship that requires you to work
an average of 30-40 hours/week for at least 8 weeks total.
✔ Be registered for internship credit.
✔ Apply early, as funds are limited.
✔ Be a US citizen.
✔ Be able to submit your application by the June 1 deadline.
Thank you,
Jennifer Hamacher, CPCU, AIS, API, AINS
