President’s Welcome
To everyone who is attending Long Island Regional Awareness Program— thank you. Sponsors, exhibitors, advertisers, and you make this event successful. Please take advantage of everything this daylong event offers you.
Five CE credits in one day
In two classes that have been approved for continuing education credits, PIA instructor John Fear, CPIA, CISR, will examine the impact technology has on you and your clients in the morning session, and how to avoid coverage gaps in the afternoon session. Attend both education sessions and earn 5 CE credits.
Ne twork ing
Don’t forget to meet with the exhibitors in our expansive trade show and discover markets that will help your business. It’s a great place to see the newest innovations and products.
Be sure to attend the networking luncheon this afternoon—during which we will hear from two-time Super Bowl champ Carl Banks, linebacker for the New York Giants, who will discuss his experiences during and after football and the lessons they taught him.
If your sweet tooth hits you in the afternoon, join the New York Young Insurance Professionals for an ice cream social. Satisfy that craving while conversing with other insurance professionals.
More information about what is happening at LI RAP 2023—not just what I’ve mentioned here—can be found in this program book. Enjoy, and thank you for being a part of this year’s event.

John Fear, CPIA, CISR
John Fear has worked in the independent agency profession for more than 20 years in a variety of roles and business areas. He works with companies, associations and individual agencies in the areas of agency operations, process improvement and sales proficiency to provide outstanding service for their clients.
Technology–Impacting You and Your Clients
8–10 a.m.
Approved for 2 NYCE credits. Applicable to PC, BR, PA & C3 licenses. (NYCR-274131)
Sponsored by First Onsite Property Restoration
Technologic advances are changing every aspect of the insurance industry—affecting the products insurance companies dynamically develop and underwrite. They also are affecting how agents interact with current and prospective clients and how claims are handled. This class will help you to understand how this will impact your ability to provide proper risk assessment for your clients, and effectively integrate those processes and procedures—through your staff—into your client interactions.
Errors & Omissions–Avoiding Coverage Gaps
2:30–5:30 p.m.
Approved for 3 NYCE credits. Applicable to ALL licenses. (NYCR-274132)
Sponsored by Excess Line Association of New York
^UN^FF
The insurance industry’s greatest obstacle to overcome is the ignorance of consumers as to how their insurance coverage protects them in case a claim needs to be filed. The recognition of this issue—and the opportunity it presents for agents to update client information and add value to individual accounts through a thoughtful and methodical review process—is critical to overcoming that knowledge gap. We will examine the most common exposures and how a systematic process can help agents respond to possible gaps in coverage changes and minimize your agency’s errors-and-omissions exposure(s). We will discuss some of the most effective methods in both uncovering these issues, as well as how to position solutions to meet the clients’ needs.
^UN^FF–This course has been approved for E&O loss-prevention credit by Utica National & Fireman’s Fund. Call the PIA E&O Department for details.
