About ITP                                    

The Insurance Training Professional (ITP) designation was created with member input and recognizes individual excellence and professionalism in training and education in the insurance industry. The designation requires both training/education and insurance experience/knowledge. It is a balanced blend of insurance, training, education, and years of industry experience. SITE is pleased to have the ITP Designation recognized in the A.M. Best’s Professional Designations for 2015 (page 7). For more information, visit A.M.
