Course in International Regulations in Claims Management — studying from Malta
Insurance is one of Malta's established financial sectors, with a regulatory framework that has attracted captive insurers, reinsurers and specialist underwriters. This creates demand for professionals who can model risk, analyse claims data and support actuarial functions. Engineers with statistical skills are valued in pricing, reserving and risk management. Employers include licensed insurers, brokers, consultancies and the regulator itself, where quantitative and technical expertise is increasingly important.
Fees for Malta: €448 (Euro), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

Questions from Malta
Which professional bodies in Malta relate to insurance, risk and actuarial work, and does SEIUM's qualification fit?
SEIUM Institute's qualifications are private qualifications, not official Maltese state degrees, and they are not accredited by any national body. In Malta, insurance and financial services are supervised by the Malta Financial Services Authority, and professional actuarial qualifications are set by international bodies that Maltese firms commonly follow. Whether SEIUM's training is recognised is for employers or the relevant body to decide.
What roles in Malta might this training support in insurance or risk management?
Malta has a significant insurance, reinsurance and financial services sector, and firms there employ people in risk analysis, data and modelling roles. Whether a private engineering-focused qualification counts for a given role depends on the employer's requirements and the qualifications they already expect. Reviewing current job descriptions in Malta and asking employers directly will show how your training would be viewed.
How much time does this need each week, and what language level is required?
Master's programmes total 1,900 hours, postgraduate diplomas 800 hours and specialist courses 300 hours, delivered fully online. Spread over the programme length, this suits people working full-time if they set a steady weekly schedule. Teaching is in English, so you should be comfortable reading and writing technical English. Fees can be paid in instalments, and employer sponsorship is possible.
