Humber College trains future brokers on Applied Epic

Hands-on experience with industry-leading technology gets graduates contributing from day one.

Summary

Bridging the talent gap in the broker channel

Humber College’s Insurance Management - Property and Casualty program prepares career changers, recent grads, and newcomers to Canada for entry-level broker roles. Developed in partnership with Applied Systems and a broker advisory committee of leading Canadian brokerages, the program trains students directly on Applied Epic, so graduates enter the workforce with real hands-on experience on the same industry-leading technology they’ll use on the job.

Humber Associate Dean John McNeil calls the partnership with Applied “a game-changer.” 70% of graduates go directly into broker channel roles, and many receive multiple job offers.

“What employers love is that our graduates come out turnkey. They’re ready to hit the ground running because they don’t need extensive onboarding programs.”
