The latest and greatest info from ILScorp!ILScorp Offices closed Monday for Labour Day
Why do they call it Labor Day? For many, Labour Day signals the end of summer, but Labour Day is an annual holiday to celebrate the achievements of workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest. Happy Labour Day Canada! ILScorp offices will be closed Monday September 2, 2019 to celebrate Labour Day. Our offices will be open on Tuesday September 3. Hope you had a great summer and enjoy the long weekend! Purchase or renew your CE Course Subscription to complete your mandatory CE requirements online now.

Alberta Continuing Education – New Expiry Dates
To continue to provide the highest quality continuing education (CE) for insurance professionals in Alberta, the Alberta Accreditation Committee (AAC) has determined that CE without expiry dates and those accredited for longer than three years, will be phased out and no longer be accredited for CE purposes. This ensures that all CE offered aligns to current market conditions and trends.

If you are a Level 1 or Level 2 licensee, the only qualifying insurance continuing education is technical material directly related to General insurance products, compliance with insurance legislation and licensee requirements such as council Rules, Council’s Code of Conduct, the Insurance Act, and privacy legislation.
