The first step.....

Dear All,

Udaan Insurance Academy has been launched with a view to train sales professionals of life insurance industry, working as Agents and Managers. We intend to hold one day workshops, covering wide range of topics.

What differentiates this Academy from other training options is emphasis not on bookish knowledge, but on practical approach. This is not a Motivational programme, but a Skill Enhancement Programme. My 16 years experience in life insurance, beginning from a part time agent in LIC, to working as highly successful Agency Manager, Branch Manager and Territory Manager in Birla Sun Life Insurance and Reliance Life, comes handy in achieving this task.

We had our first workshop on 20th May,2010, attended by 12 persons, including 2 COT, 2 MDRT and one highly successful Development Office of LIC. In total, we have had 4 workshops in 11 days time.

Need your well wishes and cooperation to make this venture successful.

Ashok Goyal
