Norwich Union (NU) has launched an initiative to give its 4,500 claims staff the opportunity to develop their skills and aid their career progression.

The academy, which was designed in-house, will help claims staff offer an improved, efficient, consistent and informed service to customers and brokers.

The training awards have been tailored to the specific needs of staff and the business and different levels of awards will be available including certificates and diplomas.

Staff will achieve these awards by providing evidence of their level of competency following activities such as formal training courses, technology-based training, interactive workshops, on-the-job training and mentoring.

The awards have achieved external accreditation and are recognised by the Oxford Cambridge RSA examination board. NU said the training is available from the end of July.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
