Marine insurance course

Our CII accredited five-day course equips you with an understanding of the management of risk in the commercial maritime world by examining the insurance cover provided by the main classes of marine insurance.

Maritime and logistics industries are not exempt from today’s unprecedented levels of global uncertainty and with the right guidance, insurance programs, and risk mitigation strategies, maritime and logistics companies can skillfully navigate the changing risk landscape to minimize losses and liabilities, and exploit opportunities for future-proofing growth and resilience.

Our course examines standard coverage under widely used international conditions for each risk type, as well as the standard exclusions that can be expected to be found within each class of marine business. The course also covers other industry issues that need to be understood, such as general average, bills of lading, international sanctions, maritime cyber risk, and environmental/ESG issues.

Please note that our 2023 courses have been completed. Registration is now open for our 2024 course dates.

For large companies who cannot attend a course, or for those who cannot afford to attend a full five day course, Marsh provides shorter, bespoke marine insurance training seminars at your own office location.

For those, who have sufficient numbers, a completely “in-house” course, just for your own staff is something we have already provided with great success for insurers, banks, and shipping companies both in the UK and overseas, as well as for insurance institutes and academies around the world.

For large companies in Europe, Asia, and America, this can be a great alternative and more convenient option. We are happy to discuss the numerous options for running additional courses at locations around the world.
