Life Settlement University extends fall schedule

October 02, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Atlanta, October 2, 2007 – Life Settlement University (LSU) has posted its extended Fall class schedule, including courses designed for life settlement novices and those seeking advanced training in the subject. Six courses were originally announced in July; these additional six classes were added to meet demand. Life Settlement University (www.LifeSettlementUniversity.com) is designed to educate insurance and financial professionals from insurance agents and insurance company home office employees to regulators, attorneys, accountants and legislators about the relatively young secondary market for life insurance. Life settlements enable seniors or those with terminal illness who no longer want or need their life insurance to receive an advance cash payment for their policy.

Courses, from Life Settlements 101 to Advanced Uses of Life Settlements in the Business Market are open to insurance and financial professionals and their support staffs, and anyone else who needs to better understand the life settlement option. Six classes, all of which are held in Atlanta, are on the extended Fall Schedule. To sign up for a class, visit the Register page of www.LifeSettlementUniversity.com.

“In our extended schedule, we’re repeating courses because demand was high and we want to meet the needs of the many types of professionals who want and need to know more about settlements,” says M. Bryan Freeman, a life settlement industry pioneer who is the founder of LSU. “When we first launched this effort (Life Settlement University) in 2006 we were primarily responding to a need expressed by insurance and financial-planning professionals. Now we’re addressing the learning needs of a broader range of business professionals, including bankers.”

Previous terms at Life Settlement University have also attracted accountants, attorneys, insurance company employees, legislators, regulators and others.

Classes will be added to the schedule periodically.
