Risk Management & Insurance

A certificate in risk management and insurance provides training in risk management for personal and commercial lines of insurance, and prepare students for the CPCU examinations and other professional certifications. Courses cover personal property and liability insurance, life and health insurance, retirement planning, business law, loss prevention, risk retention, self insurance, and risk financing techniques. Students completing the certificate in risk management and insurance will be better prepared to obtain an insurance license and pass the Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (CPCU) examination and course of study. UH West O‘ahu worked in partnership with Hawai‘i’s insurance industry to create this Risk Management and Insurance certificate specifically to address the growing need for skilled insurance professionals locally and nationwide. The program is presently offered at UH West O‘ahu both in person and online.

Conferral of a Certificate in Risk Management and Insurance does not result in professional licensure. The State Insurance Commissioner requires candidates to pass an examination that measures the applicant’s qualifications and competence. For more information on the various types of licensure examinations, please consult the Hawai‘i Insurance Candidate Licensing Handbook.
