About the course

The future of personal auto insurance is already here. This course examines three of the most significant trends transforming the Canadian automobile insurance market: ridesharing, telematics, and autonomous vehicle technology. Together, these topics help brokers understand how evolving technology is changing underwriting, rating, claims handling, and client advice. You'll learn how rideshare coverage changes throughout each stage of a trip, when endorsements or commercial auto coverage may be required, and how platform insurance interacts with a client's personal policy. The course also explores usage-based insurance programs, explaining how telematics data influences premiums, privacy considerations, and claims investigations. Finally, you'll examine the rapidly developing world of autonomous vehicles, including automation levels, sensor technology, product liability, vehicle data, and the emerging coverage challenges brokers will increasingly encounter. Designed for Canadian P&C brokers, this practical program provides the knowledge needed to confidently advise clients on today's emerging automotive risks while preparing for the transportation technologies of tomorrow.
