This two-year degree program will allow the student to acquire
business skills that will help them manage an insurance
business. Courses are taught by a certified insurance agent, and
will prepare the student to sit for their Montana producer’s
licensure exam at the conclusion of the program. This program is
offered entirely online; students do not have to live in the
Miles City area to complete the program. All online classes
include discussions with the instructor and other students on a
weekly basis. In addition, projects will take students to
insurance providers in their community for real-world learning
opportunities. An internship is also part of the program. The
internship can be completed in an insurance office near the
student’s home, or at a larger producer’s headquarters. |
