PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
The purpose of the qualification is to build knowledge and skill required by employees in short term insurance that have had schooling at or below NQF level 4 in order to prepare them for learning at NQF level 5. It is intended to empower learners to acquire knowledge, skills, attitudes and values required to operate confidently as individuals in the South African community and to respond to the challenges of the economic environment and changing world of work in the financial services industry. It should add value to the qualifying learner in terms of enrichment of the person, status and recognition.

As a qualification that covers short term insurance related learning, it provides a framework for learners to develop competencies that will give them insight into the Short Term Insurance sub sector which includes personal/domestic, commercial and industrial and corporate insurance. It introduces a fundamental understanding of the key terms, rules, concepts and principles of the sub-field that will enable learners to be informed workers in the industry. It provides a balanced learning experience that allows flexible access to life long learning, higher education and to productive employment in short term insurance. It provides an opportunity for learners to learn and apply academic skills in relation to the workplace and will allow for multi-skilling. As such it is a bridging qualification for learners who move from formal schooling into an insurance workplace.

The National Certificate in Short Term Insurance: Level 4 is intended for personnel employed in short term insurance. The focus is on basic information gathering, analysis, evaluation, presentation and the ability to apply knowledge of the sub-field to solve common problems within familiar context.

Qualifying learners are capable of:
  • Carrying out basic research, information gathering and analysis
  • Interpreting current affairs and their influence on short term insurance
  • Managing risk in their own lives
  • Operating a computer for business purposes
  • Understanding the nature and scope of short term insurance
  • Applying legislation that regulates short term insurance
  • Managing an information system used in short term insurance
  • Understanding the relationship between needs and short term insurance products
  • Understanding the different products marketed by the short term industry
  • Understanding the role of insurance in a business environment
  • Understanding the types of statutory insurance that is compulsory and SASRIA insurance in South Africa
  • Producing written evidence of short term insurance contracts
  • Understanding reinsurance as applied in short term insurance
  • Processing numerical and text data
  • Maintaining an information system

    Depending on the unit standards selected as electives, the learner will become competent in basic skills relating to:
  • Understanding the historical context of financial services in South Africa
  • Understanding the different classes of personal/domestic insurance including funeral insurance
  • Processing a personal/domestic claim
  • Understanding commercial and industrial insurance
  • Underwriting a standard risk in personal/domestic, commercial and industrial and/or corporate insurance
  • Understanding COIDA and the cover provided under the Act
  • Applying the legislation that relates to a specific role in the insurance industry
  • Understanding compliance, marketing to a niche market, financial interactions between intermediaries and insurers and the sales process in short term insurance
  • Understanding how to retain or expand business
  • Using the Internet
  • Understanding healthcare funding in South Africa
  • Accessing information to respond to client enquiries
  • Communicating verbally with clients
  • Understanding the sales process
  • Recognising the effect of HIV/AIDS in the insurance industry
  • Applying technical knowledge and appropriate legislation to determine the validity and quantum of a motor claim

    These unit standards are intended as building blocks for the further development of skills that will make the learner a more fulfilled, informed, efficient and cost effective worker in the industry. This should result, in turn, in more effective and efficient service to the consumer and should make the industry more competitive in the global market.

    Rationale:

    The National Certificate in Short Term Insurance: Level 4 is designed to meet the needs of learners in a variety of positions in the short term insurance sub sector. It is a generic qualification with specialisation in a selected career path in the short term insurance industry. It is first step for learners who:
  • Have attained the National Certificate in Insurance: Level 3 and wish to continue on a path of life-long learning specialising in short term insurance.
  • Were previously disadvantaged or who were unable to complete their schooling and were therefore denied access to Further Education and Training.
  • Have worked in the short term insurance sub sector for many years, but have no formal qualifications in their area of specialisation.
  • Wish to extend their range of skills and knowledge of the industry so that they can become knowledge workers in the industry.
  • Are contracted in a learnership agreement in the Short Term Insurance sub sector.
  • Have recently taken up a position in short term insurance.
  • Have not yet acquired the skills and competencies required for learning in short term insurance at NQF level 5.

    The National Certificate in Short Term Insurance: Level 4 is a bridging certificate that allows the individual to work towards a nationally recognised qualification. It is flexible enough to accommodate both learners in formal education and learners already employed in the Short Term Insurance sub sector. It aims to develop informed and skilled learners in the Short Term Insurance sector. The qualification at this level is the start of a career path in one of the areas of specialisation in short term insurance, but is still generic enough to allow maximum mobility within the industry. Skills, knowledge, values and attitudes reflected in the qualification are building blocks that will be developed further in Level 5. The intention is:
  • To promote the development of knowledge and skills that are required in the insurance industry
  • To release the potential of people
  • To provide opportunities for people to move up the value chain
  • To provide opportunities for life long learning for people who work in short term insurance where there was previously no specialised qualification

    Learners already employed in the short term insurance industry at this level do work that requires a fundamental knowledge of appropriate legislation, the most important areas of insurance industry in general and the insurance environment and system within a wider context. They require a range of skills and the ability to apply essential methods and procedures within the limits of their authority. The work roles are in personal/domestic, commercial and industrial or corporate lines of business and include but are not limited to:
  • Short Term Insurance Intermediaries
  • Internal Broker Consultants
  • Call Centre Operators
  • Personal Accident Administrators
  • Personal Lines Administrators
  • Claims Assessors
  • Client Service Providers
  • Service Agents
  • Underwriting Agents
  • Product Developers
  • Marketing
  • Short Term Administration
  • Motor Assessors
  • Reinsurers
  • Underwriters

    The National Certificate in Short Term Insurance: Level 4 should produce knowledgeable, multi-skilled workers who are able to contribute to improved productivity and efficiency within the short term insurance industry. It should provide the means for current workers to receive recognition of prior learning, to upgrade their skills and achieve a nationally recognised qualification. It should also assist new entrants to the industry. The qualification is structured in a way that exposes learners to different aspects of short term insurance so that there is scope for multi-skilling within the sub sector. It is anticipated that this qualification will promote the notion of life long learning.

    LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
    The unit standards that make up the certificate are the building blocks of knowledge and skill that are necessary for a proposed Level 5 certificate. For the most part only communication, mathematical literacy and financial literacy at Level 3 are assumed. Learners who have not previously received credit in the following unit standards, which are regarded as essential in all positions in the sub sector, are required to offer the standards as electives for this qualification over and above the 120 credits described in 1 above.
  • Process numerical data and text information in an insurance environment.
  • Maintain an existing information system in an insurance environment.
  • Indicate the sub sectors in the Financial Services Industry and the role of insurance in the industry.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the structure of the insurance industry in South Africa.

    Learners in call centres must offer the following unit standards (from NSB 04) as electives in this qualification if they have not previously received credit for the unit standards as part of Communication at Level 3:
  • Access information to respond to client enquiries in a financial services environment.
  • Communicate verbally with clients in a financial services environment.

    Recognition of prior learning:

    The National Certificate in Short Term Insurance: Level 4 allows open access. Provision has been made for prior learning to be recognised if a learner is able to demonstrate competence in the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes implicit in this qualification. Application for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) should be made to INSQA or a relevant accredited ETQA.
  • Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) may allow for accelerated access to further learning.
  • Credit towards a unit standard is subject to quality assurance by INSQA or a relevant accredited ETQA and is conducted by a workplace assessor.

    EXIT LEVEL OUTCOMES 
    Qualifying learners should be capable of:
  • Co-ordinating with others
  • Applying the essential methods, procedures and techniques used in short term insurance
  • Analysing new developments in the industry and researching aspects of short term insurance
  • Operating as informed employees in the short term insurance sub sector
  • Understanding the structure and the market of short term insurance and their role and place in that structure

  • Understanding legislation that regulates short term insurance at a basic level of understanding
  • Interpreting information from short term insurance related texts and operational symbols or representations 
    		•

    ASSOCIATED ASSESSMENT CRITERIA 
  • Rules of available products are applied to different situations in order to perform a clearly defined work role in short term insurance. (The range includes underwriting a short term personal/domestic policy, processing a claim giving financial advice, marketing a short term insurance product, administering an agreement, broker liaison and operating in a financial services call centre environment).
  • Work output is in line with an agreed mandate, relevant service agreements and an organisation`s customer service standards applicable to a clearly defined work role in short term insurance.
  • Methods, procedures and techniques of a clearly defined work role in short term insurance are applied consistently in terms of specific company policy, legislative requirements and standard industry practices.
  • The consequences of non compliance are clearly indicated for practices required in a specific work role in short term insurance.
  • New developments and trends in the short term insurance industry are accessed, analysed and interpreted from reports in the media.
  • Knowledge of current developments in short term insurance is discussed with reference to the potential impact on short term insurance.
  • The structure of the short term insurance industry is analysed and an indication is given of the contribution of a specific work role to the short term insurance industry.
  • The short term market is described and an indication is given of the role short term insurance plays in a changing market.
  • Information is gathered, analysed and presented according to the requirements of a specific work role in short term insurance.
  • A computerised database is used to access information from electronic media and to perform a specific function in short term insurance.


    The learner is able to demonstrate ability to:
  • Identify and solve problems in familiar short term insurance contexts in which responses show that responsible decisions have been made, adjust common solutions to meet changes in the problem and motivate the change within own limit of authority.
  • Work effectively with others as a member of a team, group, organisation or community. As the qualification is intended to be part of a learnership it is unlikely that the learner would work alone.
  • Organise and manage oneself and one`s activities responsibly and effectively in that it is expected that the learner will be responsible for his/her own learning and for organising his/her own work allocated tasks responsibly in the work environment. S/he is required to complete research assignments timeously and to apply knowledge of different aspects of short term insurance. S/he should be able to provide for his/her own financial security and manage his/her own finances.
  • Collect, organise and critically evaluate information. These competencies are built into the assessment criteria in many of the unit standards and the learner is required to do research projects and analyse information from the media.
  • Communicate effectively using visual, mathematics and language skills in the modes of oral and/or written presentations. These competencies are an integral part of all the unit standards and are built into the assessment criteria.
  • Use science and technology effectively and critically showing responsibility towards the environment and the health of others in that the short term insurance environment is technology driven and very few activities take place without the application of technology. The inclusion of computer end user standards ensures that this critical cross-field outcome receives attention. The learner is also expected to access information from electronic media and use a computerised database.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the world as a set of related systems by recognising that problem-solving contexts do not exist in isolation in that references are made wherever applicable to the learner`s part in the big picture and how his/her actions have implications up and down the line. The learners are expected to know and understand the insurance organisation as a system within the wider financial services context.

    In addition this qualification contributes to the full personal development of each learner and the social and economic development of the society at large, by making it the underlying intention of any programme of learning to make the individual aware of the importance of:
  • Reflecting on and exploring a variety of strategies to learn more effectively in order to become an informed worker in short term insurance.
  • Being culturally and aesthetically sensitive across a range of social contexts in dealing with diverse people in the workplace including customers, co-workers and people who are surveyed or interviewed. The inclusion of an additional official South African language further supports this outcome.

    Integrated Assessment:

    Assessment practices must be fair, transparent, valid and reliable and should ensure that no learner is disadvantaged. Learners who wish to be assessed against this standard should direct enquiries to the Insurance Sector Quality Authority, INSQA.

    The focus of assessment must be on the assessment of the learning outcomes rather than learning outputs. The specific outcomes guide the learning and training process towards the outcomes on a continuous basis. The purpose is to determine whether the outcomes have been attained. Situations should present a wide range of options. Applications should require significant choices from a wide range of procedures and in a number of contexts.
  • Learning, teaching and assessment are inextricably linked. Where appropriate, assessment of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values indicated in the various unit standards should be integrated. Assessment in communication, mathematical literacy and financial literacy should use authentic insurance contexts wherever practical.
  • Assessment has a formative monitoring function. Formative assessment should be used to assess gaps in the learner`s skill and knowledge and to indicate where there is a need for expanded opportunities. The goal is to promote learning and to assess the efficacy of the teaching and learning process. Feedback from assessment informs teaching and learning and allows for the critique of outcomes, methodology and materials. Formative assessment is diagnostic and as such it should guide the learner and the trainer. It is continuous and is used to plan appropriate learning experiences to meet the learner`s needs. It provides information about problems experienced at different stages in the learning process. As it is criterion referenced, if the learner has met the assessment criteria, s/he has achieved the outcomes.
  • Assessment should also have a summative component. Summative assessment may be used on completion of a unit standard, but should not be the only form of assessment. A summative assessment of the exit outcomes is required on completion of all the necessary unit standards and before a qualification is awarded.
  • A variety of methods must be used in assessment and tools and activities must be appropriate to the context in which the learner is working. Assessment should take place in an authentic context as far as is possible. Where it is not possible to assess competence in the workplace, simulations, case studies and other similar techniques should be used to provide a context appropriate to the assessment.
  • Integration implies that theoretical and practical components should, where possible, be assessed together.
  • Integrative techniques should be used to assess applied competence. Learners should be required to demonstrate that they can perform the outcomes with understanding and insight.
  • Assessment should ensure that all specific outcomes, embedded knowledge and critical cross field outcomes are evaluated. Assessment of the critical cross field outcomes should be integrated with the assessment of the specific outcomes. The critical cross field outcomes are implicit in some unit standards and programmes should be designed to extend and further reflect the integration.
