Course Description

The first part of the course (the first 6 modules) explores the core insurance products one needs to understand within the Wealth Management and Family Office  ecosystem. Students will analyze and evaluate risk exposure types for which a client might want insurance, including liability, automobile, homeowners, health, disability, long-term care, and life risks. Students will also learn how to conduct insurance needs analysis and select appropriate insurance policies and companies for their clients.


In the second part of the course, students will focus on mastery of Client Communications. In the wealth management industry, where technical expertise is  increasingly commoditized, effective communication is the key differentiator for building trust and sustaining a successful practice. This intensive segment positions communication not as a mere soft skill, but as the central strategic imperative for building a thriving advisory practice. Students will master the science and art of communication in their dual roles: as advisors to clients and as operators of a practice. The modules consider the full spectrum of strategic communication: from building and maintaining robust client relationships and navigating challenging conversations, to architecting a powerful personal brand and digital presence, to designing tech-enabled, scalable outreach systems.
