This is the 11
th year that ANZIIF has won the award, which recognises the provision of outstanding and continuous education and training services to the insurance and reinsurance industry in the Asia-Pacific region.
Anton Barnett-Harris, general manager, education, events and international at ANZIIF, said the award came off the back of an exciting year for ANZIIF’s education program.

expanded our delivery of education and training across the Asia-Pacific, including signing a significant partnership agreement in Thailand, as well as focused on our work in China and other countries in the region.

It is a hugely exciting time to be working with the region’s insurance industry,” he said.
