The Wotton + Kearney and Australian Professional Indemnity Group (APIG) Scholarship is now open for submissions.

The program, in its third year, recognises practising APIG members aged under 36 who make an outstanding contribution in professional indemnity and financial lines insurance.

Candidates must write up to 600 words outlining their background in financial lines insurance and their views on the industry from a perspective that affects them.

The winner will attend next year’s Professional Indemnity Forum Conference in the UK. They will also visit the Lloyd’s market in London, with $7500 provided for return airfares, accommodation and spending.

APIG will announce the winner on September 7 at its national gala dinner. Suncorp’s Michael Forster won the scholarship last year.

The closing date for submissions is August 17. To enter or for more information, click here.
