Insurance Executive Program

IEP logoThe Insurance Executive Program invites independant insurance agency managers to spend five days on the Appalachian State University campus. They are housed and classes are held at The Broyhill Inn and Conference Center on campus. The cost of the Program is $3,000.00 and includes tuition, materials, lodging and most meals.

Description

The Insurance Executive Program is typically held during the second week of May. It begins on Sunday and students depart on Friday afternoon. In addition to daily classes, sessions are held most evenings. Class size is limited due to the Program’s format, which allows for individual participation. Scholarship opportunities from insurance carriers may be available.

Students are housed - and classes are held - at the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center. It features 83 deluxe guest rooms and suites. The Broyhill commands an impressive view of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.  The Jackson dining room serves breakfast lunch and dinner, and the Inn also features a lounge, ballroom and nine meeting rooms.

Guests will also be able to enjoy access to Wellness Center facilities while attending the program.

Scholarships

Students wishing to attend the Insurance Executive Program may pursue scholarship opportunities with their insurance carriers.  All companies are invited and encouraged to participate as a demonstration of their investment in the American Agency System.

Underwriting companies have contributed grants to the Program, which entitles them to sponsor four participants, one of which may be a company employee. The grant covers the entire cost of the program except transportation and incidentals.

Companies who have recently committed to the Program are listed to the right. Their support is greatly appreciated. If your carriers are not listed, please have them contact Dr. David Wood, Program Director, at 828-262-6234 to learn how to participate.

It is possible to attend the Program without a company scholarship. However, due to the structure of the Program and the high level of individual participation, class size is limited.
