Live Training Courses and Events

The ACA is excited to announce we will provide 1 or 2 live training events each year that is driven by claim's challenges or feedback from the field regarding the current claim season. These live events are in partnership with our wonderful sponsors, member companies, and subject matter experts in their respective field. The ACA will provide 1 to 2 day events using a wide variety of education and training techniques designed to send you back into the field or workspace with the ability to apply what you learned immediately along with resources and POCs that you can reach out when you need assistance. The objectives are aimed at comprehension and application, not just building knowledge. We hope to see you there for these important events.

You can call 866.215.9274 or email us at info@agclaimsassociation.com if you have questions or we can be any assistance.

IMPORTANT NOTES: To finalize registration for an event requires an account with the ACA. The account is free, it is not membership, and the process is relatively short so click the register button at the top of the webpage and await an email confirming your account is approved before registering for an event. You must login to register and/or apply the discount price for members.
