NAHU Ethics Course

NAHU represents many ideas, ideals and principles as a organization. Moreover, the diverse nature of our membership means we stand for many things as individuals as well. “What do we stand for and how do we conduct ourselves throughout our lives?”

NAHU has created the new complimentary Ethics course in response to numerous member requests. Following sound ethical practices is essential for any business, but especially so for an insurance professional. Agents' reputations are in large part a reflection of how their business and personal ethics are viewed by clients, prospects, referral sources and the carriers they represent.

NAHU and InsuranceStudy.com commissioned Jim White, an insurance ethics expert, to author the course. White is an insurance agent who also frequently teaches an ethics course and writes about the topic, including articles for the Association's Health Insurance Underwriter magazine.

NAHU asked InsuranceStudy.com to work with us since we believe in the value of online professional education and secondly, it is already one of our online education partners. InsuranceStudy.com used its proprietary technology to convert Jim White's text into an online format to create an online test for the course.

Ed Zurek, president of InsuranceStudy.com and a long-time member of NAHU, noted that “the introduction of an Ethics course is a reflection of the Association's leadership role in the insurance business”. “All members look to the Association to identify key issues facing business in general and the insurance field in particular and to help them build and adapt their business practices. Consumers and business customers are more closely examining the ethical practices of the firms they do business with so this course fills a need we all have.”
