(MENAFNEditorial) Mr. Thomas Tobin, Partner, Wilson Elser Moskowitz Edelman & Dicker LLP will be speaking at the CLM 2016 Claims College School. The 2016 Claims College will be held in Baltimore, Maryland, September 7-10.
Each school is comprised of three levels and successful completion of all levels in a particular school will earn participants a respected and sought after designation, which will become the industry standard for identifying top-notch claims professionals. For individual schools, levels consist of pre-course reading materials, in-class instruction, group projects and an exam. The Claims College is not an industry seminar or conference, this is a true educational experience designed to help educate and grow the claims profession.
