Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: you progress at your own pace within the intake, so the programme can be combined with work.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is R, Python with pandas, WTW Emblem and Microsoft Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Testing is studied through real procedures for processing driving data, telematics pricing models and fleet prevention plans. Assessment is continuous by module, plus the final Master's Thesis.

Standards covered: Royal Legislative Decree 8/2004, Directive (EU) 2021/2118, Law 35/2015, Law 50/1980 on Insurance Contracts, Regulation (EU) 2019/2144, Regulation (EU) 2016/679, Regulation (EU) 2023/2854.

Assigned technical tutor:every module ends with a deliverable that your tutor marks individually.
Standards-based learning:guided reading of Royal Legislative Decree 8/2004, Directive (EU) 2021/2118 and Law 35/2015 applied to real cases, not as a theoretical annex.
Industry software:R, Python with pandas, WTW Emblem and Microsoft Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions.
Master's Thesis with defence:a complete telematics insurance product or programme with data architecture, scoring and pricing models, prevention plan, privacy analysis and business case, defended before a panel.
Flexible format:100% online, no fixed timetables, compatible with full-time work.
