Centers

Welcome!

I invite you to learn more about our students, faculty and outreach programs. We believe our relationships with the Greater Los Angeles Insurance/Risk Management community are our greatest asset as we build our students’ knowledge of insurance and the vital role risk management plays in today’s dynamic world of commerce.

We believe that we can support the insurance community best by preparing the future workforce with the fundamental principles underlying the insurance mechanism one student at a time. The Center supports these activities with financial and educational resources over the long haul—both before and after graduation.
