Welcome to the International Center for Captive Insurance Education

Several years in the making, ICCIE (pronounced “I SEE”) was developed in response to a need expressed by captive insurance professionals for in-depth educational offerings, information on current topics, and a professional designation.

Despite a strong pattern of expansion in captive insurance companies, research showed that there was a critical lack of education and training in the industry that, if not corrected, could affect its continued growth and professionalism. ICCIE’s mission is to be the premier provider of captive insurance education and to offer the preeminent professional designation in captive insurance.

The ACI program allowed me to get a better grasp on the concept of captive insurance. Each course I enrolled in addressed different aspect of a captive but when put together gave a holistic view. Because I now have a better understanding of how the product works I believe I am in a better position to regulate and create regulations/guidelines to govern captive insurers.

With the establishment of a newly revised Tennessee captive statute in 2011, it was clear that having qualified regulatory personnel was critical to our success as a domicile of choice. As a result, every new examiner, analyst or attorney supporting the Captive Section is required to obtain their ACI designation from ICCIE. This requirement so significantly improved the strength of the Captive Section that the examination of captives can be performed within the Section…allowing us to pass substantial contract examination cost savings along to captive owners.

The coursework that I completed during the ACI designation was invaluable to me and my company as a new captive owner.  Not only did it provide education and best practices around captive operations – it also gave me the opportunity to meet with other industry professionals and expand my network in this area.  It was well worth the investment of my time and my company’s money!

Completing the program got me up to speed much quicker than independent study or on-the-job experience possibly could have done. I’m so pleased I made the decision to pursue my ACI designation and know that the knowledge gained will be invaluable to my career going forward.
