CCIB

If you have already attained your CAIB or AIIC designation, or if you have extensive insurance industry experience, it’s time to earn your "graduate degree": Become a Canadian Certified Insurance Broker. View "A Personal Challenge for the Professional Insurance Broker" brochure [941KB PDF].

This national designation has long been recognized as the mark of insurance brokerage knowledge and experience.

The CCIB Program is a self-study program involving three exams. The exams are practical and experience-based.

Part 1 Essay Questionnaire
  • 3 1/2 hour examination

  • Comprised of 10 10-mark case-study-style questions

  • Tests the application of technical knowledge and risk management

0 Credits 0 - 59%
6 Technical Credits 60% and over

Part 2 Short-Answer Questionnaire
  • 2 hour examination

  • Short-answer questions

  • Tests technical knowledge

0 Credits 0 - 59%
6 Technical Credits 60% and over

If a candidate is unsuccessful with either written exam (part 1 or 2), they will be given the opportunity to challenge that part again on the next available examination date without losing credit for the part already completed.

Part 3 Survey Examination
(either oral or written)
  • Successful completion of both parts 1 and 2 (written exams) are a prerequisite to the survey exam

  • If you choose the oral exam, three panelists test you by playing the role of curious customers for whom you have prepared an insurance portfolio (based on a client needs portfolio given to you beforehand)

  • Oral exam date arranged at a mutually agreeable time for you and the Brokers Association

  • If you choose the written exam, you will have a 5 hour open-book exam to prepare the insurance proposal

0 Credits 0 - 59%
12 Technical Credits 60% and over

There are no books specifically for the exams. You may enhance the knowledge you have gained from your experience by using CAIB 1, 2, 3 and 4 as a study aid.

The CCIB exam are written at the same time as the May CAIB exams and the December CAIB exams.
