  1. RSA – Apprentice Programme

  2. What is the Apprentice Programme? The apprenticeship programme is a tailored 3 year programme, training us up to be commercial underwriters within our field. An underwriter assesses all kinds of risks, and then decides whether they want to insure them and what the terms and premium are around this insurance. In our Croydon office where the Apprenticeship takes place, the types of cover we offer are: - Property & Packages - Professional Indemnity - Motor - Liability - Property Owners A typical task we could have on a day to day basis, is looking at different cases provided to us by Brokers, and deciding whether or not we would like to insure them, and identifying what the main risks are around insuring them To work towards your CII qualifications 2 2

  5. How did we start at RSA? • Luckily, we both had relatives within RSA who told us about the apprentice programme last year as this was the first year they had run it and we hadn’t heard about it. • This is NOT in anyway going to hold anyone back from applying who does not know someone who works in the company however, as the other 2 of our apprentice colleagues did not know anyone within RSA and were very successful! • We all attended an assessment day last June after our A levels where we were evaluated on our communication skills in a group task, our technical knowledge in a case study and finally a formal one on two interview. After finding out we were successful, we then started the job in September (meaning we could still have our summer holidays!!) • Neither of us particularly knew what we wanted to do after A-levels and weren’t set on going to uni without a focus of what we wanted out of it. We had never considered a career in insurance, but the apprentice programme sounded so well supported that it was an opportunity we couldn’t afford to miss. 5
