The I.R.A officials are currently in Embu County to train 120 insurance agents who operate within the county. The Insurance Regulatory Authority is an agent of the state whose mandate is to regulate, supervise and develop the Kenyan insurance industry.

Governor Wambora said that his government is committed to supporting the agency in training, examining and ensuring that every successful participant is issued with an Executive Certificate of Proficiency in Insurance.

The course is aimed at increasing Kenyans’ knowledge about services that are offered by the insurance industry while enabling them to establish careers by marketing different insurance policies.

The governor was represented by Dr. Justin Muturi, an Executive Committee Member for Education at the opening ceremony of the training. The ceremony was held at the Kenya School of Government.


Meanwhile, participants who will undergo the training successfully and earn the Certificate of Insurance will be more confident and knowledgeable about the insurance industry and its services. This certification will enable them to focus their studies and also specialize on the basis of their career goals and ambitions.
