Mission: InVEST develops a diverse pool of insurance professionals and informed consumers by educating high school and community college students on careers in insurance, financial services and risk management and encourages them to pursue careers in the industry.
History
Founded in 1970 at Hollywood High School by the Independent Insurance Agents of Los Angeles, InVEST began training students in insurance agency and company operations and encouraging them to pursue careers in the industry. InVEST wisely remained loyal to its original focus and principles, and over the course of the next three decades, InVEST has blossomed from near obscurity into 235 programs in 30 states with more than 96,000 graduates. Today, the InVEST vision is just as clear as it was more than 30 years ago.
InVEST benefits the insurance industry:
Trains work force and brings new talent for carriers, agents and brokers.
Reaches a diverse group of employees, such as urban and minority students.
Gets insurance professionals involved on a local level as classroom liaisons.
Promotes positive public relations, positioning the industry as a respected liaison between the academic and business worlds.
Produces knowledgeable insurance consumers.
