Professional Insurance Agents (PIA)
Local Agents Serving Main Street America SM
What is PIA?
The National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) represents independent Professional Insurance Agents in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia. Our members are local Main Street Agents who serve their communities throughout America.
PIA members realize the importance of an organization that advocates on their behalf and enables them to stay informed, educated and connected to other insurance professionals. They also benefit from the many business-building tools that only an organization with the size and experience of PIA can offer. PIA supports them so they can be the professionals that today's and tomorrow's customers demand.
Serving Agents Since 1931
PIA was founded with objectives that are as relevant today as they were back in 1931:
�� Educate agency owners and staff about insurance concepts;
�� Keep agents informed about changing company offerings;
�� Allow agents to assist one another in proper underwriting of their business;
�� Increase cooperation between carriers and agents;
�� Encourage uniform policy writing and assist in proper form completion;
�� Advocate for agents in legislative matters;
�� Foster acquaintanceship among agents so they could support one another;
�� Protect the American Agency System
Insuring the Future of Professional Insurance Agents
In Legislatures Across America
PIA represents members' interests in state capitals and on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. to ensure that lawmakers understand insurance agents' positions. PIA's grassroots campaigns and our political action committee, PIAPAC, give individual agents a powerful collective voice in government.
Within the Industry
PIA works with carriers and industry organizations - the National Association
of Insurance
Who Are PIA's Members?
As independent Professional Insurance Agents, PIA’s members generally represent not one, but multiple insurance companies. This enables them to provide their local customers, both individuals and small to mid-size businesses, with a choice of coverages to meet their unique insurance needs.
Next Door Neighbors: Your Main Street Professional Insurance Agents
PIA members are civic-minded, small businessmen and women who embody the spirit of entrepreneurial America and form the backbone of our society. They are leaders in their communities, providing personal attention to customers, one neighbor at a time.
Concerned Americans
PIA members, and PIA staff on their behalf, are active in the politics that govern their communities, states and nation. As Commissioners (NAIC), the National Council of
Insurance Legislators (NCOIL), the Association for Cooperative Operations Research and Development (ACORD) and others - to ensure that the concerns of independent agents are addressed. Members have access to materials to strengthen their agency
and to keep them up to date with industry trends and regulations.
By Keeping Members Informed
PIA members receive concise, accurate and timely information needed to better manage their business. An array of national and state publications keep members up to date with the latest industry news and provide tools to improve their bottom line.
With Tools for Success
Through the PIA Main Street Store PIA offers a variety of insurance products, such as E&O, umbrella, health, life, disability, and ADD; financial services; and "PIA Plus" products/discounts that will strengthen your business.
By Educating Agents
PIA is the insurance industry's unquestioned leader in providing education courses to help professionals maintain their competitive edge and licenses. PIA National has an online education program including CE and professional skills courses. Other educational programming, including designation programs such as CIC, CISR, and CPSR, are offered by local PIA affiliates.
Through a Network of Professionals
Good agents know that they are in a people business. Membership in PIA ensures that
if an agent doesn’t have the answer to a client's question, he/she will know someone who does.
