ProRisk executive director Hamish McDonald Nye and general counsel and head of operations Jaydon Burke-Douglas will present the Masterclass at 1:00pm AEST on July 27 – on ProRisk's Sole Traders & Partnerships Management Liability.

ProRisk designed the webinar to give brokers an expert understanding of the product and how brokers can tailor it to clients' needs. Masterclass attendees will hear from the product's designers on key coverage elements and appetite and claims examples.

The second webinar, How to Bind like a Pro, is one of ProRisk's most popular webinars. Nye and Matthew Harkin will present the webinar at 1:00pm AEST on August 24 – providing a live demonstration of online trading platform ProBind. They will also teach several skills, including binding under two minutes and cross-selling new products.

ProRisk will conduct most of the webinars at lunchtime to make it easy to lunch and learn. Brokers can register for the webinars on the ProRisk website.
