Union Assurance, Sri Lanka’s leading Life Insurer, has partnered with the Sri Lanka Institute of Marketing (SLIM) to offer exclusive career development programs for its top advisers. This collaboration aligns with Union Assurance’s Learning Academy’s strategy, aimed at enhancing the professional growth and skills of advisers across both the Agency and Bancassurance divisions to better meet the evolving needs of customers.
This new initiative will offer training sessions designed by SLIM to enhance advisers’ skills, ensuring they remain at the forefront of providing services. The partnership was unveiled at an inaugural ceremony at Union Assurance’s head office in Colombo, where over 50 selected advisers from across the organisation were introduced to the program.
A key benefit of the program is the opportunity for advisers to receive certification from SLIM, which will meet the prerequisite criteria for further educational pursuits and facilitate their career advancement.
Imtiyaz Aniff, Chief Agency Officer at Union Assurance, said, “Union Assurance has always been committed to promoting learning and development, providing the best programs for members.
“We are happy to have partnered with SLIM to work on this endeavour, providing the necessary materials to our advisers to thrive in their respective roles. We intend to scale this program, enabling significant impact whereby our advisers are able to continue demonstrating a high level of service to all our customers,” he said.
Union Assurance is a subsidiary of John Keells Holdings PLC (JKH).
