Why Do Professional Adjusters Need Our Build-A-Claim-Plus ™ Class? As an adjuster, you may understand how to inspect and scope a loss for damages. You also may understand how to write the damages in an estimate. These are the easy part of building a claim. However, most adjusters will readily admit that the most problematic item that they face is how to actually build a claim file. Until now, there has been little to no in-depth instruction on the art of building a practical insurance claim.
AdjustersTraining.com is very pleased to Build-A-Claim-Plus™, an industry first! The 2-day Build-A-Claim-Plus ™ training class is specifically designed to train adjusters to understand the claims building process and to professionally build and manage their claim files.
Build-A-Claim (course # 29309) course has been approved by the Texas Department of Insurance for 16 General CEU credits. These classes will be kept small, and only a limited number of students will be allowed in each 2-day session. Students are allowed on a first-come, first-served basis.
