Program Overview
The curriculum begins with extensive training on Reliance Standard’s group employee benefit products and services, underwriting, and overall business acumen. You will gain knowledge of the various roles and responsibilities within a regional sales office and become proficient in pre sales activities. During this time, you will be fully sponsored to obtain your state insurance license.
On-the-job training is an essential component to your success and you will be provided opportunities to job shadow and network. You will learn the key elements of selling a case and bridge your newly developed skills with practical application. A main function of a sales representative is to solve problems for our clients, and you will gain experience in this area as you work through actual cases with your manager and peers.
As part of this program, you will also work towards obtaining your Certified Leave Management Specialist (CLMS) designation, a professional certification offered by the Disability Management Employer Coalition (DMEC). This opportunity is a unique and notable feature of Reliance Standard’s STAR program, distinguishing you as a leave expert upon completion.
You will be ready to launch into your sales career with Reliance Standard at the end of this program where your final regional sales office and territory will be determined and assigned based on business need.
