These platforms offer on-demand courses, interactive learning modules, and progress tracking to ensure staff stay up-to-date on industry trends, compliance requirements, and operational best practices.

Catalyit Goes Deeper

One of the top concerns for agencies is finding, hiring, and retaining the necessary staff. Hiring someone with insurance experience can be challenging, especially if the agency needs a training program. Total CSR addresses this issue by providing agencies with a predefined training program to help new hires with little to no experience get up to speed faster than they would on their own. This also helps to reduce the training burden on the agency.
