Muss ich für eine Ausbildung in der Versicherungsvermittlung bereits bei einer Versicherung arbeiten?

Um den Lehrgang zum Versicherungsvermittler VBV absolvieren zu können, benötigen Sie nicht zwingend Erfahrung in der Versicherungsvermittlung oder in einem anderen Bereich der Versicherungsbranche. Der Kurs eignet sich auch für Personen, die sich spezielles Wissen aneignen möchten, um zukünftig in der Vermittlung und Versicherungsberatung tätig werden zu können. Neben Branchenneulingen empfiehlt sich das Seminar jedoch auch für bereits im Versicherungswesen tätige Makler oder Aussendienstmitarbeitende, die ein anerkanntes Zertifikat erlangen wollen.

Wie lange dauert eine Versicherungsvermittlung Weiterbildung in etwa?

Die Dauer einer Weiterbildung im Bereich der Versicherungsvermittlung ist je nach Anbieter, Angebot und Zielgruppe unterschiedlich. In der Regel ist mit etwa 20 Präsenztagen zu rechnen, die über ein halbes Jahr verteilt absolviert werden müssen. Nähere Informationen dazu erteilen die Schulen.

Wie ist die Prüfung für das Zertifikat in Versicherungsvermittlung VBV aufgebaut?

Die Abschlussprüfung des Lehrgangs Versicherungsvermittler VBV gliedert sich in eine schriftliche sowie eine mündliche Prüfung. Die schriftliche Prüfung findet zweimal jährlich in Prüfungszentren statt und beinhaltet Kenntnisse rund um die Versicherungswirtschaft, Sozial- und Personenversicherungen sowie Haftpflichtversicherungen, Sachversicherungen und andere Vermögensversicherungen für Gewerbe und private Haushalte, sowie Rechtskenntnisse. In der mündlichen Prüfung für das Versicherungsvermittlung Zertifikat können die Prüflinge zwischen den Themen „Kleine Unternehmen“ sowie „Private Haushalte: Selbständigerwerbende, Familien, Einzelpersonen“ wählen und müssen in einem fiktiven Kundengespräch eine Beratungs- und Verkaufssituation durchlaufen.
