Step 2 - Insurance Work Station Online Training Tutorials

Any brokers who wish to sell Autopac products on behalf of MPI must be qualified to do so by MPI. Before training can be taken on the business rules and policies of the Autopac program, brokers must complete online training of the Insurance Work Station (IWS). This phase includes eighty (80) hours of supervised training in a brokerage.

Students who are not employed at a brokerage already must secure their own placement at a brokerage to be able to take this phase of the course.

Step 3 - Introduction to Autopac

Through 3 days of class instruction, brokers will finalize the training required by MPI to sell the Autopac product. Attendance in this training is based on students completing the mandatory Step 1 and Step 2 training. Students who do not complete the IWS tutorials will not be allowed to take the final exam.

Upon Completion: Students successfully completing and passing the open book MPI Autopac exam will now be a certified Autopac agent. As long as all ICM requirements are fulfilled and the employee has an insurance license, they are now able to begin assisting customers in an Autopac capacity.

* Note - Completion of Step 3 only, does not qualify an individual to sell insurance in Manitoba unless you have Auto Broker or your Level 1 License.
