Video Learning Center Update

Our agency is very proud of the video learning center available to agents and brokers logged into the DisabilityQuotes.com web site. Guardian Disability Insurance Brokerage has teamed up with Edulence to pilot their new K2 video delivery system. All of our brokers have been able to log into our web site, and watch many of our on-line videos for several months. Today, the system is truly complete.

You can now see short videos from some of the best disability insurance agents in the country including Jeffrey Benowitz and Dr. Eric Studley. You can also see most of our past seminars on-line as if you were there as well. The financial underwriting seminar put on by Art Pfeffer, the state of the union seminar from Jim Glickman (President of LifeCare, Inc.), as well as many others are all available to watch on our web site.

Guardian Disability Insurance Brokerage is going to make web-based video delivery a major focus of our organization. Our industry has not done an excellent job of promoting individual disability insurance, and has not done enough to educate the professionals in the insurance business on the importance of DI. We believe the best way we can educate insurance professionals is to do so through web-based video, and are very happy to have teamed up with Edulence, and their new K2 product.

We encourage you to log into DisabilityQuotes.com with your agent ID and password, and spend some time reviewing all of the video content we have. There is a lot more content being added every day, and there will be a lot more to come over the next several years.
