Frequently Asked Questions

  • What kind of educational programs does IEA offer?

    IEA offers professional development and training programs in Workers’ Compensation and Absence Management.

  • Does IEA offer LIVE classes?

    IEA offers both “instructor-led” and “on-demand” courses.

    Instructor-led course means you’ll have access to weekly interactive webinars with a subject matter expert. You’ll be able to ask questions and interact with peers in your group.

    On-demand training means you’ll progress through your training on your own time and at your own pace.

    For both instructor-led and on-demand, you’ll have access to your own dashboard for reading materials, assignments, and completion certificates.

  • Do I have to set up a profile to take a class?

    To take a class you do need to set up a profile. It takes just a moment and ensures easy access to all of the resources you’ll need to progress through your course. Plus, you’ll be able to download your certificate upon completion, and you’ll be able to review your transcripts at any point in the future.

  • Are IEA courses recognized in all 50 states?

    IEA’s Certified Professional in Disability Management (CPDM) certification is not only recognized, but sought after by many organizations in all 50 states in the U.S.

    IEA’s workers’ compensation courses lead the industry in California. If your organization is outside of California AND settles claims in California,  your adjusters must meet State of California compliance requirements.  IEA provides the state mandated 120-hour training for new adjusters.

  • I took classes with you a long time ago. How do I get a transcript?

    Depending upon how long ago you took your courses, your transcript may be quickly available through your own learning portal, or we may need to retrieve your data from prior systems. Please email us and we’ll explore the issue for you.
