Comcover 2012 Training Courses

Comcover's insurance and risk management training program is tailored specifically for Comcover Fund Members. The courses integrate insurance and risk management information, address public sector issues and offer varying levels of specialisation. The most popular courses now include references to the AS/NZ 31000:2009 Risk Management Standard, and business continuity concepts contained in the recently released ANAO Better Practice Guide, Business Continuity Management - Building resilience in public sector entities.

There are courses targeted at the identified learning needs of:

• newcomers to insurance and risk management roles who require introductory and overview information
• experienced Fund Members who require analytically focused information and technical instruction
• experienced Fund Members who require focused material on a specific topic

Class sizes are limited to allow participants greater access to trainer knowledge and to encourage Fund Member participation. Comcover courses are provided free of charge to Fund Members who commit to attendance. Demand for courses is high so early registration is recommended. Comcover reserves the right to cancel courses with insufficient numbers.

The courses shown are being held in Canberra, unless otherwise indicated
