InsuranceDelaware, United States2-10 Employees
The TMPAA operates within the insurance sector to support Program Specialists who manage specialized program business. Program Business encompasses products designed for a narrow market or class, usually representing a group of similar risks placed with a single insurer, with administration performed by specialists who have built expertise in that market. Responsibilities are negotiated with the carrier and can include underwriting decisions, binding and issuing policies, billing and premium collection, and often marketing, data gathering, claims management and loss control, with the potential for risk sharing. The association notes that specialists differentiate their offerings through product design, risk management services, delivery mechanisms, or pricing, and programs can be distributed through retail, wholesale, or direct channels. Headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware, TMPAA operates within the insurance industry, serving program specialists and their carrier partners. In March 2024, TMPAA and The Institutes introduced a Program Business Professional designation.
