Certified Professional Insurance Agent (CPIA) Designation
The AIMS Society’s Certified Professional Insurance Agent (CPIA) Designation is first-of-its kind, hands-on, how-to training. To earn the CPIA designation, candidates are required to participate in a series of three, one-day Insurance Success Seminars. These Seminars are designed to enhance the ability of producers, sales support staff and company personnel to efficiently create and distribute effective insurance programs. Participants leave with ideas that will produce increased sales results immediately. In fact, The Insurance Success Seminars are guaranteed: Implement the principles covered in these sessions and experience a 20% increase in personal production within six months, or your registration fee will be refunded!
The three Insurance Success Seminars are entitled:
- Position for Success (CPIA 1)
- Implement for Success (CPIA 2)
- Sustain Success (CPIA 3)

Maintaining the CPIA Designation
Upon completion of the series of three Insurance Success Seminars, CPIA designation candidates are notified of their eligibility. Candidates are awarded the designation and will be notified by letter from the AIMS Society. Diplomas are awarded during the Annual Conferment Ceremony held in conjunction with the annual PRO-to-PRO Executive Retreat. If a new designee is unable to attend the ceremony, diplomas are mailed after the Retreat.
The AIMS Society’s Certified Professional Insurance Agent (CPIA) designation stands for professionalism, commitment to professional training and results, and technical knowledge. The designation does require a biennial update. This update requirement can be satisfied through participation in any one of the three core Insurance Success Seminars, participation in any one of the Advanced Insurance Success Seminars, by attending the AIMS Society’s annual PRO-to-PRO Executive Retreat, or by maintaining Individual or Agency membership.
