Waterloo, ON, Sept. 20, 2019/InsPress/ – For brokers, adjusters and underwriters, understanding the claims process, including the investigation, is crucial to supporting your client after a fire loss.  What better way to learn than in an interactive and hands on seminar that includes a live burn of a living room and a vehicle?

The Insurance Institute of Ontario, Conestoga Chapter is bringing together experts including forensic engineers, fire fighters, lawyers and adjusters for an exciting and informative session at the Waterloo Region Emergency Services Training facility on October 2, 2019 starting at 9:00 am.
