The University of Connecticut School of Law is launching a new Graduate Certificate in Insurance Law. This flexible, specialized program is designed for legal professionals and industry practitioners seeking advanced knowledge in one of Connecticut’s most vital sectors. Enrollment is now open for the Spring 2026 semester.

Developed by the Insurance Law Center at UConn Law, the certificate is the only one of its kind. Courses are offered virtually and in-person, including convenient evening classes for working professionals. Students will gain practical and theoretical insights from nationally recognized faculty and benefit from UConn Law’s deep ties to the insurance industry.

“This certificate reflects our commitment to providing flexible, high-impact legal education that meets the evolving needs of professionals in Connecticut and beyond,” said Eboni S. Nelson, Dean of UConn School of Law. “It’s an exciting opportunity for students to deepen their expertise in a field that plays a critical role in our economy and legal system.”

The program is open to individuals with a law degree, as well as students with an advanced degree in a related field and with significant legal or insurance experience.

“The program allows working professionals to get focused training in all kinds of foundational and cutting-edge insurance law topics,” said Travis Pantin, associate professor and director of the Insurance Law Center. “For someone who is looking to boost their knowledge of the field generally, or to dive deep into a particular set of topics relevant to their practice, this will be really useful.”
