THIRD ANNUAL MARINE INSURANCE AWARDS

Commencing in 2005, the Association’s Executive Committee has been allocating funds for a Marine Insurance Award in memory of our members who died on September 11, 2001,  which is offered annually to those maritime academy candidates who have the best grade in their marine insurance course, or who, in the opinion of their instructors, have indicated the keenest interest in the marine insurance field. This year, the Association presented awards of $400 to the following individuals in recognition of their outstanding achievement in the study of Marine Insurance:

Massachusetts Maritime Academy

Michael  J. Schmidt  '07, was nominated by his Professor of Marine Insurance.  He received the highest grade in his class in the marine insurance course, and also because he completed two internships in ocean marine underwriting with St. Paul Travelers Insurance in Boston. During these internships Michael worked closely with underwriters to understand and issue ocean cargo, hull & machinery, marine liabilities policies and yacht policies while also making numerous marketing trips to agents, brokers, and clients.

 

He participated in policy and systems training in New Jersey and took a training trip to New York City.  His employer rates him very highly.  We have received a letter of appreciation from Michael which you may read by clicking here.
