Helping independent agents become trusted voices in their communities is an important part of the IIARI Agent Awareness Program.
Today participating IIARI members took part in professional media training at WPRI, where they learned interview techniques, on-camera presence, and strategies for confidently communicating with television audiences.

Whether discussing severe weather, insurance trends, or consumer protection, these skills help our IIARI Independent Agents deliver clear, credible information when it matters most.

Thank you to our partners at Main Street Media and WPRI12 for providing this valuable training experience.
