Join us, invest in you, and see what being a member of this leading association can bring you. Our events have become choice venues for new and exciting industry shaking announcements. CGIB is where the CLHIA unveiled their industry pooling initiative, where Trillium first unveiled their new changes in administration, and where they will return to announce updates in the coming years (we hope).
Can you think of a more effective way to improve your network, your knowledge, and your business all while actually saving you valuable time? With all these benefits you can’t afford not to be a member.

"I am definitely planning to renew my membership… The main reason is that your seminars are priceless, and I can attribute my whole book of business to CGIB pretty much since I never had any other mentors in the group benefits industry!!

"I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you for all the advice. You spent 45 minutes helping me frame a dialogue to have with the resistant employee. After meeting him where he’s at, and empathizing (he went away and thought about it), we got there in the end. It was appreciated more than you know."
