MLIS

Management Liability Insurance Specialist

MLIS.gifWhat is MLIS?

The core curriculum for the MLIS program consists of 5 courses that focus specifically on directors and officers (D&O), employment practices, and fiduciary liability exposures and insurance coverage. The loss exposures and the policy provisions pertaining to these coverage lines are examined in depth within these courses. Completers of these courses will possess substantial knowledge of these important and intricate lines of management liability insurance. They will understand common variations between insurers’ policy forms and how to arrange coverage that will respond to the risks faced by their clients or employers, whether they are large or small businesses, not-for-profits, or governmental entities.
 
You must pass all five courses to qualify as a holder of the MLIS certification. Each course is independent of the others and you may complete them in any order you choose.
 
Insurance CE credit is available in most states for an additional fee.
Core Classes:
  • Directors & Officer Liability Exposures
  • Directors & Officers Liability Insurance Coverage
  • Employment Practices Liability Exposures and Insurance Coverage
  • Fiduciary Liability Exposures and Insurance Coverage
  • Private Company and Nonprofit D&O Liability Exposures and Insurance
  • Optional Course: Professional & Management Liability: Exposures & Insurance Coverage
The MLIS course texts are 80 – 100 pages in length. Depending on your current level of knowledge of the subject matter, an MLIS course will typically take 6 to 10 hours to complete. The MLIS courses are intended to cover the essential elements of the subjects they address at an intermediate level. Thus, the MLIS program will be an intensive learning experience for newcomers to professional or management liability insurance, eliminate many important knowledge gaps for risk and insurance professionals who have little experience with these lines, and be a helpful review of the fundamentals for seasoned risk and insurance professionals.

Reaccreditation:

Once you earn the MLIS certification, you qualify as a holder of the certification for 24 months. You must earn 3 hours of approved MLIS CE credit during the initial 24 months and each year thereafter to continue using and displaying the MLIS certification. Below is a list of the currently available courses.
 
These courses have been filed with state insurance regulators in most states that allow distance learning. If state insurance CE credit is important to you, we suggest you start by adding these to the shopping cart and requesting credit for your state to determine the amount applicable to the courses you select.
 

Other Ways to Obtain Reaccreditation:

Another option for renewing your designation is to attend or participate in other approved conferences, seminars or educational programs
