The African Reinsurance Corporation (Africa Re) welcomes applications from suitable / qualified candidates for the 7th Cohort of the e-learning Young Insurance Professionals Programme (YIPP) between November 10, 2024, to January 31, 2025.

The YIPP is a FREE online training programme, which targets young professionals under the age of 35, working with insurance or reinsurance companies, brokerage firms, supervisory authorities or related organizations.

The Programme offers Fourteen (14) courses (13 Non-Life Insurance courses and 1 mandatory course In Leadership and Management) which have been carefully selected and designed to strengthen participants' knowledge, hence contributing to capacity building and career development in the African insurance and reinsurance industry.

The YIPP is another milestone in the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative of Africa Re, in line with its mission of fostering the development of the insurance and reinsurance industry in Africa. It is indeed common knowledge that the African insurance and reinsurance industry lacks enough talent, causing the industry to punch below its potential in many areas of its necessary development.

At the end of the nine (9) month online training, the top ten (10) participants will receive the following benefits:

1) A Certificate of Completion issued by Africa Re’s Group Managing Director / Chief Operating Officer;

2) An Invitation to a Capstone Session (On-Campus or Online) where participants will be introduced to cutting-edge managerial and leadership skills;

3) Sponsorship to attend one of the major Insurance/Reinsurance events in Africa (AIO, FANAF, OESAI, GAIF, FAIR, etc);
