CAIB means Canadian Accredited Insurance Brokers. It is a program designed by insurance brokers for insurance brokers to equip them with the skills and knowledge to be a successful broker. The CAIB Designation is earned by completing all 4 CAIB courses and shows clients and employers you are an expert in the field.
The main difference between CAIB and CIP is that CAIB is for insurance brokers and CIP is more for underwriters. The CIP designation is also more difficult to get requiring 10 courses vs 4 with CAIB. If you have a CAIB Designation and want to pursue CIP, you can get credits for 3 courses requiring only 7 to get your CIP.
The CAIB 1 exam is more difficult than Fundamentals of Insurance (FOI) as the bulk of the exam are short answer questions. Therefore, the CAIB 1 exam is only recommending for experienced brokers. New entrants should consider the FOI exam instead.
The CAIB exam consists of 12 key terms, 10 multiple choice questions and 26 short answer questions. The exception is the CAIB 4 exam which consists of all essay-style questions. You need a 60% to pass each CAIB exam.
The Fundamentals of Insurance exam is very achievable by anyone even if English is not your first language or if you don't have an advanced degree. With the right learning materials and support, everyone can score the required 70% on the FOI exam within a few weeks of part-time study.
