Claims Class Helps Student to Get New Job

I am always delighted to hear about the success of our students, especially when Claims Class has helped them achieve that success. Helping people improve themselves and climb the career ladder was one of my motivations when I decided to develop the training and education side of our business.

One of our Distance Learning students is an Italian contracts manager currently working for a contractor in Central America. Part of their duty is to prepare, submit, and manage the claims for the contractor. During the course, they were promoted to the manager of the department. They mentioned at the time that, as a result of what they had learned on the course, they had completely revised the way claims were submitted and had even revised and resubmitted some earlier claims that had not been awarded, to ensure they contained all the essentials. I believe some issues were referred to the dispute adjudication board, and our student used what they had learned to help prepare the dispute for review.

Our student decided they wanted to move from Central America and began applying for positions with claims consultants. We spoke a few weeks ago, and they were happy to tell me that they had been offered a position with a large, international claims consultancy, with a choice of working in a variety of locations in the Middle East and a separate offer from a contractor for a regional position in the United Arab Emirates.

They advised me that the knowledge gained from the course had given them a lot of confidence during the interviews, and also that the claims consultancy was familiar with and placed great value on the Claims Class courses. Part of the selection process with the consultancy was to complete an assignment based on a case study. The assessors’ remarks were, “… our review panel was impressed and thought you submitted a very good piece of work.” Case studies from real life feature highly in our Distance Learning course, and our student commented that without Claims Class, they would have struggled to complete the assignment.

I am absolutely delighted with this news and thrilled that Claims Class has played a part in our student’s success.
