On Friday, February 8, 2019 sixty RMI seniors and eight Industry representatives participated in the highly popular “Day in the Life of a Renewal” workshop on campus. The workshop is structured to give students a hands on perspective of the inner workings of an insurance renewal. Students are split into groups spending the day as either a Risk Manager, Insurance Broker, or Insurance Underwriter. A series of five company policy renewal cases navigated through the negotiation process of the risk managers securing a broker for services and then negotiating among several insurance company underwriters for policy renewals. The day concluded with each representative team sharing their results and lessons learned from the process.
