Course in Risk Coverage for EV Charging Stations
Online 300-hour course in risk coverage for EV charging stations. 6 modules covering ITC-BT-52 (Royal Decree 1053/2014, electric vehicle charging infrastructure), Regulation (EU) 2023/1804 (infrastructure for alternative fuels, AFIR) and DIALux. Assigned tutor and open enrolment.
Course in Risk Coverage for EV Charging Stations — studying from the United States
Insurance and risk analysis are central to the American financial system, with major hubs in Hartford, New York, Chicago and Des Moines. Insurers, reinsurers and consulting firms rely on actuarial models, catastrophe modeling and data analytics to price risk and manage capital. Engineers with quantitative skills contribute to underwriting, claims analysis and risk assessment for sectors such as automotive, aviation and property. State insurance regulators and professional credentialing bodies shape the profession's standards.
Fees for the United States: US$890 (US Dollars), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

Questions from the United States
Which US bodies govern actuarial and risk credentials, and is SEIUM recognized?
Actuarial credentials in the US are overseen by the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society, with professional standards linked to the American Academy of Actuaries. Enrolment-based actuarial and state insurance regulators set the rules for practice. SEIUM's qualifications are private and not accredited by any national body, so recognition for professional actuarial roles is decided by employers or those bodies.
What roles in US insurance and risk management might this training support?
Typical roles include risk analyst, data scientist in insurance, reliability or catastrophe modelling specialist, and underwriting analytics. Insurers, reinsurers, brokers, and consultancies hire for these skills. Whether a private qualification carries weight depends on the employer, so reviewing job descriptions and asking hiring managers is the most reliable way to judge fit.
How is the programme delivered for someone working in US time zones?
Programmes are fully online and taught in English, with an assigned technical tutor and a final project. Because the study is asynchronous to a degree, you can often fit sessions around US working hours, though you should confirm schedule details with the institute. Instalment payment plans are available, and employer sponsorship may be possible for eligible students.

How you'll learn
100 % online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded lectures and an assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetables: students progress at their own pace within the intake, which makes it possible to combine with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is DIALux, AutoCAD, advanced Excel, QGIS, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Practical work uses real procedures for risk inspections at charging stations, fire scenario analysis in car parks, and assessment of losses from service interruption. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.
