The Young Insurance Professional VBV training course

You get to know day-to-day business in various classes of insurance and can actively work in a team. On top of that, you spend two to three school days per month expanding your knowledge of the insurance industry and underwriting.

Once you have passed your exam, the VBV (Association for Professional Insurance Education) will award you its Young Insurance Professional VBV certificate. The abbreviation "VBV" is a certified qualification offered by the Association for Professional Insurance Education and one that is recognized by all the major insurers in Switzerland.

With the Young Insurance Professional VBV qualification you have exam-free access to the following further training courses: Insurance specialist with federal certificate, specialist certificate, qualified insurance economist HF or bachelor's degree courses with a specialization in risk and insurance, business economics or business administration at various technical universities. Helvetia would be happy to support you.

Once you have completed your initial course, many different external options are open to you for further training – like the college of professional education in insurance (HFV), a Bachelor's degree in Risk & Insurance or a Swiss federal certificate in insurance. Helvetia will be happy to assist you with these.

You will earn CHF 2,770 a month, paid 13 times a year, which is an above-average salary compared with the competition.

You will have six weeks' annual leave and can enjoy discounts on non-life insurance products. We also pay CHF 250 towards your public transport season ticket. What's more, you can benefit from a range of discounts at certain fitness centres and from discounted Reka cheques. If you complete your course, you will of course receive an attractive gift.

All our employees enjoy the FlexOffice model. That means you have the freedom to work at least 30 percent of your hours anywhere and at any time. So you can work from home, in a train or from a cosy café – and it's entirely up to you whether you work in the early morning, late at night or any time in between.

In addition to your training, you will participate in various events such as the kick-off, Inspiration Days and other social events. You will then attend the Fit4Exams Camp to revise what you have learned, so that you can pass your final exams with flying colours.
