For 2016, you will see the IBAO invest in technology that
will promote educational learning - “Anywhere - Anytime”.
Our focus will be to team up with and build quality content
with our partners (insurers, affinity groups, industry experts,
etc.) throughout the year. This extensive library of accredited
e-learning programs we are building will be accessible
“on-demand” for our members.
Today, learning is happening anywhere and at anytime. Learning is occurring not just in the classroom anymore, but in
the home, workplace, library and our daily interactions with others. Learning happens through active engagement and
significantly, it is no longer identified with reading text or listening to lectures, but rather occurs through on-line group
chats and communities, in real time.
At IBAO, we are expanding our continuing education offerings to include more webinars and self-paced e-learning
modules in 2016. We understand that high quality content produces well trained, highly effective people. Look for
new IBAO content to support your professional development. Just as important to quality content is the professional
facilitators who deliver it! We are looking to grow our great facilitator base with new, innovative facilitators who have
a passion for development and the ability to strengthen the broker channel. Connect with us if you are interested in
becoming a facilitator.
At IBAO, we continue to offer our designation and certificate programs on-line, in the classroom and self-directed.
IBAO President, Doug Heaman, has a powerful message for 2016 - “Create Your Future”. Ownership of your
development path includes an intentional commitment towards insurance designations such as CAIB. We encourage
you to make one important step… enroll and begin your designation journey with IBAO.
Finally, IBAO is committed to bringing educational offerings to every corner of the Province. Currently, Basic Broker
licensing is offered on-line and in our IBAO classroom. To meet your needs, we have also expanded Basic Broker
licensing to Mississauga, Thunder Bay and Brampton in 2016. We have more CAIB facilitators offering immersion
classes and on-line group sessions to support rural interest. With your help, together, we can build the right program
offered exclusively to you and your staff.
Your success, is our success. All the more reason to join our programs.
“Create Your Future”
with IBAOeducation
in 2016
Doug Heaman, CCIB
President, IBAO
As competition continues to increase in the
insurance Industry, education and knowledge
will continue to be one of the key ways we will
be able to differentiate ourselves. Advocacy and
“advice-based” service are embedded in our
ability to skillfully discern the needs of our clients,
overcome objections with relevant information
and make recommendations that meet their
individual needs. Our ability to do this is rooted
and grounded in education. As one of the three
pillars for success, IBAO will be focusing on and
expanding its educational offerings for 2016.
Thanks to the abundance of information available
on the internet, our ability to adapt to the needs
of our evolving, more educated client, highlights
the desire to be a “lifelong learner”.
The Insurance Industry offers a rewarding career
opportunity and like most things in life, you get
out of it what you put into it.

Gone are the days where the only place you could
purchase insurance was from your local broker.
Today’s insurance customer has choices like never
before. That doesn’t mean that “advice-based”
service is no longer valued. What it does mean is
“how” we deliver our services must adapt to these
changes.
My theme for 2016 is “Create Your Future”,
inspired by Abraham Lincoln’s quote “The
best way to predict your future is to create it”.
Education has and will continue to play a role in
helping us create the future we desire. The future
belongs to those who are willing to prepare for it.
I encourage you to take advantage of some of the
educational opportunities being offered this year
and elevate your professionalism. We all have 24
hours in a day, how will you use those hours?
As Insurance professionals we are continually
faced with the challenge of offering more to
our customers than price. We have the answer
at our fingertips. Creating engaging sales and
service experiences that transcend the world
of convenience is still trending. I hope you see
opportunities that are “ripe for the picking” and
choose today to make 2016 the year you dedicate
your time to “Create Your Future”.

C.O.P.E.-ing with Commercial Property Risk
Assessment Webinar (CL - 2T)
Commercial property underwriters establish a risk’s eligibility
and rate in part by considering the building’s Construction,
Occupancy, Protection and Exposures or C.O.P.E. Commercial
brokers must understand these factors and assess commercial
risks against them. Those brokers who routinely gather a
risk’s C.O.P.E. information and submit it to the underwriter can
expedite the quote turnaround time and obtain the best policy
coverages, terms and rates for their clients.

Basic Construction Classifications:
• Fire-Resistive
• Non-Combustible

Customer service is one of the most important ingredients of the
marketing mix for insurance products and services. Customers
today are not only interested in the insurance policies offered,
but also all the additional elements of service such as the greeting
they receive when contacting your office, the timeliness in which
phone calls and e mails are returned, and the assistance offered
when they have a concern or need to make a claim.

Cyber and Privacy Breaches and the Intact
Insurance Solution Webinar (AL - 2T)
There’s no doubt that cyber security is becoming more of a
concern for businesses of all sizes. What many don’t realize is
that small and medium-sized businesses can be even more at
risk than larger companies because of their lack of resources and
experience in this area. It’s up to brokers to let their customers
know their risks are real—and growing.
This two-hour webinar will go over the types of privacy breaches
that businesses face and dispel the myth that a data breach is
always the result of hackers. New federal legislation is about to
come into play, and we will provide an update on what the new
obligations that businesses will have with respect to privacy
breaches.
We will also discuss Intact Insurance’s cyber endorsement and
go over its three main components: privacy breach coverage,
services provided by IDT911 (Intact Insurance’s third party
privacy breach experts), and business interruption coverage—a
component that differentiates the Intact Insurance solution in
the small to medium sized business space.
We will examine reasons for choosing from the various types
of crime insurance and how this affects the broker’s discussion
with their client.

needed to perform underwriting duties and to confidently
explain insurance concerns to clients when it comes to roof
covering.
The chief purpose of a roof system is to provide a barrier to
the intrusion of water into the home. The roof covering must
resist nature’s worst elements: hail, fire, wind, sunlight, snow,
ice and temperature extremes. It must also battle damage from
the formation of ice dams during the freeze/thaw cycles so
prevalent in the winter months for certain areas of the province.
Having a “roof over your head” is a basic human need. It is also
the most crucial building element protecting the homeowner’s
most important treasures: home and family.
