Florida Surplus Lines Speaker Series

FSLA is proud to partner with the Florida Surplus Lines Service Office and the Risk Management and Insurance program at Florida State University to support the Florida Surplus Lines Speaker Series.

The twice-yearly series, held during the fall and spring semesters, gives students the opportunity to hear directly from surplus lines industry leaders, gain insight into the profession, and learn more about the many career opportunities available within the industry.

The Speaker Series provides a valuable connection between the classroom and the insurance industry, helping students better understand the role of surplus lines in Florida’s insurance marketplace and the opportunities available to them after graduation.

FSLA appreciates the continued partnership and support of the Florida Surplus Lines Service Office and Florida State University. We look forward to continuing to build on this successful collaboration and inspiring the next generation of surplus lines professionals.
