The team at Great North Insurance prides itself on educating our clients during the insurance application process through a question based process. To continue to provide a higher level of service and expertise, team members take a number of continuing education classes. In 2016, Rachel Thurs and Nicholas Killoran attended classes put on by Professional Insurance Agents – North Dakota (PIA-ND). Chartered in 1964, PIAND works full time to identify & help our members overcome the challenges facing ND independent insurance agents. They provide information and education to assist agents in guiding consumers in the purchase of insurance products. In a nutshell, they communicate, educate and advocate for their members.

“The CPIA designation is a hands-on program that helps agents effectively deliver stronger insurance programs to their clients.  It shows agents how to sell and market their product knowledge and risk management expertise in a meaningful way that consumers can benefit from and understand those benefits” says Executive Director, Steve Bechler, CIC.

Congratulations to Rachel Thurs and Nicholas Killoran for attaining the CPIA designation.
