TRS DESIGNATION


TRANSPORTATION RISK SPECIALIST
The Transportation Risk Specialist stands out as the sole mark of professionals who have chosen to immerse themselves in a career of providing incomparable service to the transportation and motor carrier sector.
When the motor carrier notices the letters “TRS” next to the name of an insurance or risk management professional, they can be assured that it was earned through rigorous specialized study, regular progress evaluations, dedicated work experience, high standards of integrity and a commitment to maintaining a current level of technical expertise in understanding and servicing the transportation industry.
The TRS Designation recognizes that an individual has an understanding about the motor carrier industry and the motor carrier’s insurance needs; including underwriting and coverage. The individual has obtained this knowledge by participating in education opportunities, passed a rigorous written text and has provided services to the motor carrier industry for at least two years.
