Educational Requirements
Candidates should have at least a grammar school education, and more advanced professional or technical training will be a valuable asset although not essential for success.
Experience
Previous experience in either life insurance or general salesmanship is not necessary, but will be of value, and those who have had to do with insurance work in the Army will find this experience helpful.
How Instruction is Given
Many organizations are equipped, and others will be, to conduct preliminary central office training courses for men intending to locate at distant points. A list will be furnished later of localities, companies, or agency organizations where definite courses of training are now being given.
The novice will be given theoretical and practical instruction. Field experience will be given under the guidance of qualified field supervisors.
