1 CTE and Business Partnerships…The Best of Both For Kids Insurance and Risk Management

2 What do you mean insurance isn’t a sexy career?  Approximately 50,000 work in Michigan’s insurance industry.  Average wage is $64,000, compared to statewide average of $46,217  There is a job for every interest: marketing, sales, claims, math, computers, etc.

3 Why does the Michigan insurance industry want to attract young people to our industry?  Almost half of our jobs are held by people 50 and older.  In the next 10 years, we will need to replace those workers in addition to hiring more workers.  Let’s face it, young people don’t grow up wanting to work at an insurance company.

4 Fact:  60 percent of students who go to college don’t finish in six years.  Students who take college classes in high school are more likely to succeed in college.  Young people are more successful if they are engaged in learning.
