CAIB New Edition 1.0

Welcome to a New Way to Learn 

Updated to reflect the evolving insurance industry and redesigned for a modern learning experience, CAIB New Edition 1.0 is launching in Manitoba, on February 17th, 2026.  

This new edition introduces refreshed content, enhanced learning tools, and a more flexible format designed to better support today’s insurance professionals.

Here’s everything you need to know about CAIB New Edition 1.0.

Features of CAIB New Edition 1.0: 

  • Content integrating current industry practices, technology and client standards. 
  • Updated student resources featuring numerous real-world cases to reinforce learning. 
  • Visual diagrams designed to support comprehension and information retention. 
  • Content restructured from chapters into modules, making it more accessible and easier to progress through.  
  • For the first time, CAIB will be offered in an e-book format, enhancing accessibility and convenience
  • An interactive platform that enables students to create study notes, bookmark content, search key terms, access tap-to-reveal flashcards, and work through interactive check-up quizzes.  
  • CAIB content will be reviewed and updated annually, ensuring content remains current, relevant, and aligned with industry changes. 

What's Changed:  

CAIB 1:  

  • Expanded Home and Auto Insurance.  
  • Canadian Legal System Explained. 
  • Underwriting Insurance Added. 

CAIB 2 & 3: 

  • Content moved between 2 & 3 for better learning pathway flow. 
  • CGL moved from 3 into 2. 
  • New to CAIB 3:  
    • D&O
    • Cyber Insurance
    • Reinsurance  
    • Risk Management  
    • Sharing Economy 

CAIB 4:

Important Items of Note: 

  • Exam formats remain unchanged. Students can continue to choose between virtual exams—available anytime—or in-person exam sessions, held five times a year using paper booklets.  
  • Your exam matches your textbook edition. At registration, be sure to select the correct book from the drop-down menu.  
  • No need to retake completed exams. Any CAIB exams you’ve already passed remain valid, and all editions are fully compatible with earning your designation. 
  • Previous edition exams will retire in early 2027. Plan accordingly to complete any remaining assessments before this date. 
  • February 2026 Discussion Group will still be with the Pre-2026 Edition. This will be one of your last chances to have teacher lead learning with the old books. Select immersion to follow to aid in accommodating the transition. 

 

How to Choose the Right Edition:  

 

CAIB 1 and CAIB 4 New Edition study materials will replace the previous editions. 

CAIB 2 and CAIB 3 must be taken using the same edition. If you have completed CAIB 2 using previous editions, you must continue with the previous edition of CAIB 3 (and vice versa). 

 

Pricing:  

 

  • All fee's include exam costs and the captus service fee.
