This year, the CIP Society is making available two $1,500 scholarships to candidates interested in pursuing further education related to the p&c insurance industry, and who are not being financially supported by their employer.

The scholarships prioritize CIP Society members who are pursuing FCIP or Advanced CIP programs, in a three tiers of eligibility for the program. 

The second tier targets members pursuing other p&c related studies, such as Risk Management and MBA programs.

The third tier provides an opportunity for dependents of CIP Society members who are pursuing post-secondary education related to the p&c insurance industry and/or related financial services to apply for a scholarship.

The scholarships are named after former Insurance Institute CEO Chris Rhind, and were created to promote the CIP Society’s values of lifelong learning and professional development. Just this past year, after a careful review, the scholarship program has been upgraded to better meet the changing needs of our Society members.

The application deadline for the 2019/2020 academic year is May 31 and scholarships are awarded by July 31.
