“I loved this very technical training that allowed me to learn directly about the core of the subject. I have been looking at a specialised expertise in claims but also in accounting and management. Property and casualty insurance is a more complex field than it seems at first glance and the AEC has really given me the opportunity to add another feather to my cap.”
