The RBS Academy will identify, train and develop graduates in the short- term insurance industry for placement and succession within the industry that will address transformation and skills shortages in the industry.

The insurance industry plays a crucial role in protecting people and livelihoods, and future leaders in the sector must have a strong understanding of ethical and socially responsible practices. This will help to build trust and confidence in the industry and support its long-term sustainability.

By investing in the development of future leaders, the RBS Academy will help to address the skills shortage and ensure the continued growth and competitiveness of the South African short-term insurance industry. At the same time, it will play a crucial role in promoting transformation and creating a more inclusive and diverse industry that reflects the makeup of South African society.

The RBS Academy program will be all-encompassing, comprised of not only academic qualifications and work experience but also training in the soft skills essential for success in the insurance industry. Through its focus on coaching in wellness, ethics, virtues, corporate citizenship, mindfulness, and social responsibility, the Academy will help ensure its graduates are well equipped to succeed in any organization within the industry.
