As the introductory level of the ALMI and FLMI programs, LOMA's Level 1: Insurance Fundamentals Certificate provides basic foundational knowledge about insurance products and operations with particular focus on life and health insurance. These courses help employees quickly gain confidence, serve the customer effectively, and contribute to company success.
- The Level 1: Insurance Fundamentals Certificate is suitable for every employee, and is an ideal part of onboarding for employees who are new to the industry.
- It is also a requirement for those already working and aim to achieve higher levels of LOMA qualifications (ALMI and FLMI).
- It helps insurance staff employed in support functions such as human resources, marketing, IT and finance, to develop an understanding of the principles and oeprations of the industry in which they work
- Job seekers and graduates can also improve their chances of being employed in the industry - one does not need to be employed in insurance to take this qualification.
