Target Audience

This seminar is designed for insurance brokers and industry professionals at all stages of their career who are looking to better understand how artificial intelligence is reshaping the insurance industry and how it can be used responsibly to support day to day work.

It will be particularly valuable for professionals involved in client communication, renewal preparation, claims support, policy comparison and other client facing activities. Whether you are just beginning to explore AI or looking to refine how you use it, this session will provide practical insights to help you work more efficiently while strengthening the human skills that remain essential to professional success.

Overview

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way insurance professionals research information, prepare documentation, communicate with clients, and support decision making. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into the workplace, understanding how to use these tools effectively and responsibly has become an important professional skill.

This practical seminar will explore how AI can support everyday broking activities while reinforcing the critical thinking, judgement, communication and relationship building skills that technology cannot replace.

The program will begin with an introduction to AI literacy, providing a practical understanding of how AI works, where it can add value, and demonstrations of real world workflows already being used across broking businesses. It will then examine the emerging risks and compliance considerations associated with AI, including accuracy, verification, underwriting implications, and the importance of maintaining professional judgement when using AI assisted outputs.

The session will conclude with a panel discussion exploring how AI is shaping the future of the profession and how insurance professionals can confidently embrace new technologies while continuing to deliver trusted advice and exceptional client service.
