The 2012/2013 term has been yet another successful one at the Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta. That’s a significant achievement, considering that Council members give their time and energy as volunteers, in addition to their responsibilities to their employers, and they maintain their level of commitment while the industry undergoes change around us all. Our Academic and CIP Society budgets both exceeded surplus expectations, our Seminar attendance levels exceeded expectations, and we also offered more CIP classroom opportunities than initially planned. To top it off, we offered social and networking opportunities as well, including the first event in Lethbridge in years! In addition to a number of ongoing activities to strengthen our operations, this was the first year that the IISA offered non-voting Committee Invitee opportunities on Council to further engage and enlist members into our operation, and we appreciate their involvement and their contributions. We will continue to provide this opportunity and look for means to engage and involve our Invitees. We also saw our Education Coordinator Katie Bastian take a maternity leave, which was temporarily filled by Leigh Swainson for a number of months and now by Sallyann Isaac for the remainder of the term. Our Manager, Caroline, has been very busy and we are all very fortunate to work with her – she has done a great job for IISA along with Carlie Noland in an Administrative Coordinator capacity! We have many reasons to be proud of the accomplishments of Council this past term. I’ll reiterate a sentiment I included last year - leadership comes in many styles and from many sources on Council. Each of us has something valuable to offer, and I encourage you to become involved on Council if you aren’t already. Our success would not have been possible except for our local staff, the dedication, hard work and enthusiasm of all Council members and course instructors, and the support of our employers. I express my sincere thank you to all of them, and I’m looking forward to watching IISA move forward in the coming term! Kevin Callbeck BComm, FCIP President - Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Page 3 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 Academic Division Report Mark Rouleau, VP Academic Membership As at March 31st, 2013 the IISA member roster totals just over 2,500 individuals.

IISA continues to offer a three‐tiered pricing model on most seminars: Graduate, Member, Non‐Member *** Seminar Promos mean special pricing (ie everyone pays the same registration fee regardless of membership status) ‐ nb some individuals who received this pricing may actually have had a membership ****Total Possible Members is our potential membership number if we forced membership on all Seminar Attendees. Membership is also not required for Social events. While we had a satisfactory year in membership, we did see a decline year over year by about 70 members. CIP course registrations were down by approximately the same amount and this likely translated into lower membership numbers. A strategic membership market for IISA is the complimentary memberships for students attending full time educational programs (UofC, MRU, BVC). Fewer than expected students took advantage of this offer and this also impacted our overall membership numbers. There is an interesting difference in student uptake on this offer: Bow Valley College’s C11 class had great uptake but Mount Royal University students were very uninterested. We will be working on improving this student engagement going forward including engaging UofC students. On the positive side, IISA Graduate memberships (CIP/FCIP) increased by approximately 70 renewals year over year and came in at 1290. Despite the fact that a Local and CIP Society membership is needed to use the designation letters, there is a pool of Graduates with expired memberships. This could be because they have left the industry or for other valid reasons, but in October 2012 IISA undertook a project to get in touch with non-renewed Grads and brought in approximately 50 late renewals.

In 11/12 registrations rose to 710. Based off of our expectations we raised our budget for the 12/13 year up from the solid 650 area to 670. Unfortunately in 12/13 we fell short of both coming in with 607 students. Possible contributing factors to not achieving the CIP student registration target: Enrollment in feeder insurance programs/majors at local universities/colleges in insurance programs has not been growing There has been little or no growth in staff numbers in the industry, yet retirements continue More existing CIP members have achieved their CIP/FCIP designations Page 5 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 Virtual Classes IISA has enthusiastically continued with virtual class offerings. In total, 18 (40%) of our 46 classes were virtual or virtual combo. Approximately 280 (46%) of our 607 students were registered for virtual or virtual combo classes. (nb – one InHouse class was delivered via the web and is included in these figures) To continue to improve our virtual class offerings, IISA introduced the option to allow students to speak to the Instructors using multi-way audio. We promoted the benefits of multiway audio to the web students but we did not force them to purchase a required headset ($25-$40) but instead “strongly encouraged” them so they could fully participate. Students have been slow to embrace the multiway audio opportunity o Many students did not purchase the needed equipment o With a large percentage of students not having the equipment, the few that did became discouraged with the lack of uptake of the multiway audio opportunity and the lack of participation by their fellow students and therefore many of them abandoned it too There was feedback from those who persisted in using the multiway opportunity that it was a great feature Instructors might benefit from additional technical training using the feature and additional coaching to help better engage the students with the multiway audio opportunity Regarding online midterms and ensuring the validity of the proctoring process, the IISA has implemented verification processes above the minimum national standards suggested by the Insurance Institute of Canada to verify the online midterm proctor process (the nationally suggested standard is to audit 10% of the proctors). IISA has committed to sending a follow up email to 100% of the proctors IISA will ensure a minimum of 30% of the proctors are fully audited (i.e. we will persist until we get a response from this group of proctors). InHouse and Offsite Classes IISA has continued to work with employers to offer InHouse or Offsite courses: Intact InHouse (5 classes) TD InHouse (2 classes) Rogers InHouse (1 class) Rogers Offsite (2 classes) Cooperators Offsite (2 classes) AMA Lethbridge Offsite (1 class) Mooney Insurance Red Deer Offsite (1 class) Page 6 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 Formats and Delivery Method – Introductions and Reviews We have had success with introducing 12-week Saturday morning web classes. We have also piloted an InHouse 3xweek lunch class at Rogers. We have had a few classes with lower than desired registration numbers and, while it is always greatly appreciated to have an employer offer their space (especially for an Offsite course), we will be analyzing venues to see if some are simply not attractive to a large number of students. We will also be trying to determine if the delivery format has an impact on the number of registrations (i.e. is web preferable to in-person). Exam Review Sessions We have continued offering complimentary end-of-semester half-day final exam review sessions via the web (on Saturdays). Typically we offer C12 and C13 as they are most often spoken of as our most difficult courses. We have invited IINA to join our students in these sessions which not only benefits more students but also helps spread the $500/session fee. Distance Learning students for IISA & IINA are also invited. We receive very good feedback about these sessions – but students almost unanimously think these sessions should continue to be offered free-of-charge. As such, at this time it has become a no-charge part of our value proposition. We also continue to offer a free “semesterly” generic Study Tips webinar. Instructors After taking part in the interview, the panel presentation process, and the audit semester, we had four new Instructors begin teaching in the 12-13 year (Fannie Au, Justine Holthe, Shawn Fisher, Katherine Rumford). For Spring 2013 we have implemented a new tiered Instructor compensation plan. It is based on two tiers: Novice Instructor (6 or less classes taught) and Established Instructor (more than 6 classes taught). Going forward, it is IISA’s plan to introduce a third and final level: Master Instructor (more than 6 classes taught and has taken the national Insurance Institute of Canada Instructor Certification Program) Two IISA Instructors have participated in the pilot offering of the Institute of Canada’s Instructor Certification program: Leah Strader-Goled and Barb Exton. The end of this section contains a listing of IISA’s active Instructor roster for the 2012-2013 teaching year.

The Institute’s Instructors are instrumental to the success of the CIP program and their efforts, dedication, and commitment to the development of the industry are priceless. We thank the following Instructors for their time and dedication over the past year: Barb Exton, FCIP Becky Wagner, CIP Brian Speirs, FCIP David Stark, FCIP Fannie Au, FCIP George Cooper, CIP Jim Johnson, FCIP Justine Holthe, FCIP Karen DeCarle, CIP Katherine Rumford, FCIP Leah Strader-Goled, FCIP Len Cheryk, FCIP Neil Nason, CIP Rhawnie Tremblay , CIP Ross Bucsis, FCIP Shawn Fisher, FCIP Thomas Ng, CIP Exam Centres and Active Proctors - Spring 2012, Fall 2012, Winter 2013 The volunteer spirit of our industry is alive and well and the Institute depends on this to ensure the national CIP and FCIP exams are carried out properly and with the highest level of integrity. We thank the following volunteers for donating their valuable time during exam weeks: A special thank you to the companies that generously donated office space to host CIP exam sessions: TMD Adjusters, Medicine Hat AMA, Lethbridge The Co-Operators, Red Deer Roguski Metcalf Adjusters, Red Deer Proctors and Exam Centre Supervisors: Amanda Sanderson Blaine Cust, CIP Brian Wiebe, CIP Charles Roberts, CIP Darrell Verbonac, FCIP Dave Latham, FCIP David Harris, CIP David Orr, FCIP Debahootee Banerjee, CIP Don Tetrault, CIP Donald Routley, CIP Douglas Thorne, CIP Douglas Van Helden, CIP Fannie Au, FCIP Garry Watmough, FCIP Germaine Mutter Jacalyn Schwindt, CIP Jacie Walliser, CIP Janice Worobetz, CIP Page 9 Jasmine MacLean, CIP Jasmine Markandu, FCIP Jeffrey Damberger, FCIP Jennifer Plumb, CIP Joan Jarocki, CIP Jocelyn Vergara, CIP Joel Perry, CIP Karen DeCarle, CIP Kenneth De Decker, CIP Kevin Cornforth, CIP Laurelle Rodych, FCIP Lily Gordon, FCIP Linda Webber, CIP Lioba Allen, CIP Lynette Tumburai, CIP Marjorie Jeeves, CIP Mark Petrowich, FCIP Michelle Jensen, CIP Nancy Toso, CIP Nola Brewster Pamela Lockett, CIP Patricia Walker, FCIP Rebecca Collins, CIP Robin Mills, CIP Robin Shatosky, CIP Sacha Carey, CIP Sandra Bitter, FCIP Sandra Yahn, CIP Sandy Gooden, CIP Sara Schmidt, CIP Scott Dale, CIP Scott Stiles, FCIP Sherry Belanger, FCIP Starleen Mondey, FCIP Susan Morgan, CIP Tara Gilbart, CIP Thomas Ng, CIP Victor Canjar, FCIP Wayne Duggan, CIP Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 Career Connections Feed the Minds of Youth In support of the Learning Partnership’s Take Our Kids to Work DayTM, on November 7, 2012, IISA hosted Feed the Minds of Youth where nine Grade 9’s and their parents were treated to a pizza lunch and interesting insurance career stories and games. The guest speakers were Rhawnie Tremblay, Associate-Commercial Insurance from Rogers Insurance, Jason Costen, Special Investigations Unit from Intact, and Linda Buckton, Client Manager from BFL Canada Insurance. Between the three speakers Grade 9’s learned about broker topics, claims topics, and James Bondlike SIU topics. The Penny Game also gave the students an interactive demonstration of the insurance pool and why it is so important to purchase insurance. FTMOY is a wonderful opportunity for employees in the insurance industry to introduce their children to what their parents do at the office and is very positive community exposure for the Insurance Institute. Career Connections Ambassadors Our industry is full of diverse and interesting career opportunities and the individuals below are determined to deliver that message to high school students, post secondary students, and career transitioners. Getting this message out to people is becoming of increasing importance in light of the demographic challenges our industry will be facing in the coming years. Whether delivering the message to young career seekers at career fairs or university or college fairs, or through making a connection with a grade 10 student at a high school presentation, these individuals are truly ambassadors for the whole p&c industry. Thank you to the following Ambassadors: Ambassador Anita Bailey Angela Braun Jason Costen Peter Fong Herman Gin Scott Robinson Scott Stiles Page 10 Events 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Ambassador Andrea Zess Robin Mills Melanie Hansen Brad Verbridge Rhawnie Tremblay Helene Wood Events 1 1 2 2 3 3 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 Career Connections Activities Career Connections Ambassadors in Southern Alberta attended career fairs, delivered high school presentations, and also attended other community events focussing on education or careers in the p&c industry.

A number of exceptional industry and industry related professionals graciously presented their expertise for a modest honorarium and IISA is very thankful for their generosity. IISA successfully delivered our budgeted number of 23 seminars. We have continued to offer seminars in Red Deer and Lethbridge. Of special note is a successful offering in Medicine Hat – the first successful session in that city in years. The chart above illustrates the impact of the “Seminar Visitor” on membership numbers as well as the seminar revenue line. The seminar revenue line will be impacted positively as the Seminar Visitor price is typically $40 higher than the Member price, while the membership revenue line will be impacted negatively by $65 (price of a membership). Council reviews this each year and, with 70 people taking advantage of the “Seminar Visitor” pricing it appears that it is a desirable offering to the industry. Because of the value we place on assisting our students in their studying for the final exams, “No charge” seminars are almost exclusively Study Tips sessions.

The jazz trio was, once again, exceptional and added greatly to the classy atmosphere of the event. Our Keynote Speaker was Jan M. Brownridge B.A. Hons., FCIP, CRM, Vice President Property Department, Regional Manager, Vancouver, Munich RE. For the remainder of the formal portion of the event, Kevin Callbeck, President of the IISA, was the Master of Ceremonies and Maurice Tulloch, BA (Econ), MBA, CMA, Chair of the Board of Governors of the Insurance Institute of Canada presented. Intact Insurance and The Co-operators once again graciously sponsored the Graduate photos and the event programs, respectively, and Aviva sponsored the Jazz Trio. As well, we hosted an Industry Trade Show in which Career Connections, Desjardins General Insurance Group, Wawanesa Insurance, RSA, Mount Royal University, Rogers Insurance, ServiceMaster of Calgary, Cira Medical Services, WICC, The Network Corporate Search Personnel, Intact Insurance, and MKA Canada all took booths to honour and show their support for this year’s Graduates. A noteworthy event at this year’s ceremony, Leah Strader-Goled, FCIP, CRM, long time IISA Council volunteer and Instructor, was presented with the Award of Merit. This award is presented to a volunteer whose has demonstrated extraordinary support and dedication to the Insurance Institute and it is the most prestigious non-academic award conferred by the Board of Governors of the Insurance Institute of Canada. Leah was presented the award by Peter Hohman, MBA, FCIP, ICD.D, President & CEO of the Insurance Institute of Canada. National Education Week: National Education Week saw the Institute visiting Rogers Insurance and Toole Peet Insurance to promote the full gambit of IISA offerings. We also did a weeklong Trivia Contest that had about 450 entries and two Kobo eReaders as the prizes. A webinar was also held for Graduates interested in becoming CIP instructors. Page 14 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 CIP Society Networking & Social Events: On December 5, 2012, the Institute hosted a group of 70 people for the Barenaked Ladies and Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra concert at the Jack Singer Auditorium. The pre-concert reception was held at Teatro and was generously sponsored by Intact Insurance and Alberta Fire and Flood. On December 20, 2012, the Institute hosted a seasonal group event, Tidings, at New West Theatre in Lethbridge. The first event in several years for Lethbridge, we were thrilled to have 30 people attend. The pre-event reception was fully sponsored by AMA Insurance. Local Topics Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade IISA was honored to have been awarded the Golden Flame Award by WICC for our ongoing support of their worthy cause. Institute Staffing In June 2012 Katie Bastian left IISA for maternity leave. Leigh Swainson was recruited to fill the role but was unable to complete the term and left us approximately mid-way through Katie’s maternity leave. At that point, Sallyann Isaac was recruited to fill the remainder of Katie’s leave. Carlie Noland continues in her Administrative Coordinator role for three Institutes – three days a week for IISA and one day a week for each of IISK and IIMB. Understanding Serious Injury IINA and IISA were presented with Ontario’s Understanding Serious Injury multi-day training session with the contemplation that it could be a very valuable program to deliver in Alberta. IINA and IISA have secured Council volunteers with a bodily injury background to review the material and to make any recommendations as to changes that need to be made to “Alberta-ize” the sessions. We are contemplating a Fall release of the program. General Licensing Activity The Alberta Insurance Council has introduced significant changes to the General licensing structure. Of particular note is that the AIC has introduced a General Level 2 licensing exam. IISA, IINA, and the Insurance Institute of Canada have been preparing a new General Level 2 Licensing Kit to assist those studying for the new exam. A robust package of material due out in June 2013, the package will consist of two CIP textbooks (C130 and C131), the already created Alberta Auto and A&S and Travel Health supplements, and a new Level 2 supplement and online exam valid for 28 CE hours. Mount Royal University Through the BBA program (insurance minor), C11 classes appear to be relatively stable but additional courses struggle for satisfactory registration numbers and some have been cancelled. Of those students who take CIP courses though MRU, it is of concern that very few take advantage of registering for the Institute’s CIP final exam in order to simultaneously get a credit towards their CIP. Of the three CIP classes that ran at MRU in this past period (estimate 40 students), only four students wrote the Institute CIP final exam. Bow Valley College BVC has continued to offer C11 in its Fall semester as part of its 2 year diploma program. Taught by a shared Instructor, Thomas Ng, the BVC students are extremely engaged and of the approximate 10 students in the C11 course, 8 wrote the Institute final exam. Page 15 Insurance Institute of Southern Alberta Annual Report - Fiscal Year April 2012 to March 2013 University of Calgary For a number of years, students who met certain criteria and who graduated from the RMIN program at UofC were eligible for a number of exceptions towards CIP credits. This did not hold true for Graduates of the RMIF program who, in many cases, take a very similar classload. IISA has brought this to the attention of the Insurance Institute of Canada and we hope to have a favourable resolution soon.
