The Brantley Center team already does an amazing job teaching students risk management principles, insurance concepts, and how they can build a successful career in the field. My hope is that the Rate Bureau partnership can add to their knowledge of how the industry operates specifically in North Carolina and open opportunities for young professionals in our state.”
