ATLANTA, July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- KMC On Demand, a leading online provider of continuing education (CE) credits for insurance claims adjusters, and a key insurance industry advisory committee are launching the pilot of a Property Technical Certification (PTC) program designed to fill a gap in validation of expertise among property claims adjusters.

"The PTC program provides a performance standard for the development of property technical claims adjusters," said Colm Keenan, vice president of knowledge management for KMC On Demand. "The auto claims industry has been standardized for a number of years, and this program will bring the property claims industry up to speed. It's about knowing that the adjuster who is walking onto the scene of a property loss or catastrophic situation has the knowledge to estimate damages as accurately as possible. PTC provides a standard measure that will be recognized by insureds, employers and the industry." Source: PR Newswire
