"We created this scholarship in partnership with the Polk State College Foundation as part of ESC's philanthropic initiative of continuing to expand educational opportunities around the country," said Co-Owner and Chief Strategy Officer, Natalie Zimmerman. "Our hope is that this scholarship will provide entrance to insurance adjuster education that previously would not have been accessible. The scholarship's purpose is aligned with our mission which is to provide opportunities to achieve your professional goals through specialized education in insurance designations."
The scholarship fund will be administered by the Polk State College Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the college's mission of providing access to high-quality education and training.
"We are excited to partner with Polk State College to provide this scholarship opportunity to students who are interested in pursuing insurance adjusting as a career," stated Angela Milligan, Co-Owner and Chief Operations Officer. "Through this scholarship fund, we hope to help students achieve their educational and career goals and make a positive impact on their lives and the community."
ESC is committed to helping students achieve their professional goals through specialized education in insurance designations. The 6-20 ACA designation is one of the most popular and sought-after insurance designations in Florida, and ESC is proud to offer courses and training programs to help students prepare for this certification.
In Florida, once you earn your 6-20 accredited claims adjuster designation, you can apply to the state for your all-lines adjuster license. Once individuals obtain their Florida license, they are eligible to work in 34 of the 37 states across the United States that require an adjuster license. Those participating states will offer a reciprocal license to practice in their state, however, individuals must have a valid Florida all-lines adjuster license to be eligible for this reciprocity opportunity.
Polk State College is an excellent institution that provides high-quality education and training to students from all backgrounds, Zimmerman said. ESC is excited to partner with them to support students who are interested in pursuing careers in insurance adjusting.
To be eligible for the scholarship, students must review the eligibility requirements and complete the Polk State College Foundation General Scholarship Application. All eligible students are encouraged to apply, and the applications will be reviewed and rated by the team at Educational Services & Consulting. Students will be notified of offered scholarship awards via their Polk State College student email.
