OneAmerica® Commits to Growing People Through Continuing EducationOneAmerica is doubling down on its commitment to provide top-notch external training during the COVID-19 era with a strong lineup of virtual classes meant to assist financial professionals with yearly continuing education (CE) requirements. Courses are accredited by the National Underwriter Company, and feature employee benefits associates who present on multiple topics, including the Family and Medical Leave Act, ethics, trends in group disability insurance and trends in group life insurance. Sign-up and participation are required by attendees to receive credit for the classes, which vary from one to three hours each in length. "The virtual offerings are expanded and replace typical in-person education that was made difficult to conduct due to the pandemic and resulting social-distancing mandates in many cities," said Jim McGovern, OneAmerica senior vice president, Employee Benefits. "CE provides an online opportunity to stay connected to others while growing one's industry knowledge." To find out more, speak to a OneAmerica associate at a regional office near you.
