Recent studies show that less than 4% of people born between 1981 and 1997 would even consider working in insurance. With this group forecast to make up 75% of the global workforce by 2025, this is an alarming statistic about the state of the industry!
As the insurance industry and workforce continue to evolve, talent recruitment, development and retention are becoming increasingly important. To cover the pending talent gap, young insurance professionals must be hired to replace every currently employed insurance professional.
In response, the NAILBA Charitable Foundation has expanded its reach to create the Future in Financial Services (FFS) Scholarship & Internship Program — to help secure the future of the industry by attracting and developing tomorrow’s workforce.
The mission of the Program is to bring fresh, diverse talent into insurance distribution by way of scholarships and internships with NAILBA member agencies and partners. To learn more about how YOU can get involved, please contact Executive Director, Kelly Maheu, at kmaheu@nailba.org.
