What our trainees have to say

  • After years of hearing about data in the Kenyan insurance market and the opportunities around the data, this training offered a practical approach to leveraging the data. A wealth of knowledge has been gained over the last two days and it was a privilege to be a part of the experience. The trainers created a holistic learning environment that serves to drive change in an industry that has for so long been slow to progress. The future is truly bright! Thank you, AB Consultants

Relevant data insights, informing industry trends and challenges, simple solutions. Humble yet very knowledgeable; keep it up. Very good training to change the industry!

  • The two-day training has provided valuable insights on Insurance technology, market research, product design and data science. From a regulatory perspective, the knowledge and experience gained will inform a shift in IRA’s approach to insurance penetration in Kenya through the application of more modern and scientific methods. The trainers and participants were a vibrant lot and I enjoyed the two days. Thank you, AB Consultants! Keep it up!
