The Kansas Insurance Education Foundation has changed its name! It’s now the Kansas Insurance & Financial Services Education Foundation, to better represent the breadth of the industry and the educational communities that provide and receive support through the Foundation.

ABOUT US

We are educators, insurance agents, and financial services leaders committed to cultivating the next generation of professionals to ensure a strong future for our industry.

Our mission to develop an insurance educated workforce for Kansas means we facilitate curriculum, mentorship, and scholarships funds.

We work directly with Kansas universities to award scholarship funding. Universities make specific requests to the Kansas Insurance & Financial Services Education Foundation board, which reviews the request and makes a determination. If the request is approved, the board works with the university to maximize the use of the funding.
