Liz Lister, Director at Howden and heading the broker’s team for the LPI, said “I am absolutely delighted that we are working with the LPI to deliver an insurance solution designed to help make a difference to their members.   The LPI’s understanding of their membership base combined with our understanding of insurance means that we have been able to work together to deliver a truly relevant solution; one that delivers both a quality product and ease of use.

Learning and Performance Institute Managing Director, Edmund Monk, commented on the launch: “First and foremost the LPI is the standards body for the workplace learning sector and a valuable source of research, support and networking for its members. The fact that we can add value to our members’ businesses by delivering a solution like this, which could save members time and money is an additional bonus – and it’s another reason why so many trainers, both employed and freelance, are choosing to join us.”
