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.

To me, the Associate in Captive Insurance professional designation not only provides a solid framework of the workings of the captive process but, equally important, it springboards into networking with the top professionals in the captive arena : regulators, managers, owners and more. Simply put, it enhances the legitimacy and role the captive process provides as a risk financing tool

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 value that ICCIE brings to captive industry education can’t be overstated.  The ACI curriculum is comprehensive and exposes students to all aspects of the business.  The instructors are top industry professionals who are not only knowledgeable but able to present the material from a practical perspective.  Whether new to the industry or a seasoned professional a graduate of the ACI program is firmly prepared to move forward.”

When introduced to the captive insurance industry in 2015, I was so excited and wanted to learn everything there was to know. When my director told me about ICCIE and offered the opportunity to enroll in the program, I couldn’t get in fast enough. I am extremely proud of my ACI designation.
