Kapnick is excited to launch the Kapnick Apprenticeship Program! This innovative program shows our commitment to developing young talent in the insurance industry while supporting the communities we serve.

“An insurance career may not be on many people’s dream job list, but it’s both rewarding and challenging,” said Mike Kapnick, Chief Operating Officer of Kapnick. “We’re thrilled to offer this program alongside our summer internship program. It’s a chance for emerging professionals to explore an industry that values growth, innovation, and work-life balance—one they might not have considered otherwise.”

How the Kapnick Apprenticeship Program Works

The Kapnick Apprenticeship Program is a two-year initiative for recent high school graduates. It offers:

  • Paid, hands-on work experience
  • A college degree and certificate of apprenticeship
  • A full-time position at Kapnick after completion

Apprentices will train with industry experts, gaining real-world skills and experience. This combination of academic learning and practical training prepares them for long-term success.

Meet the First Apprentice

Grace Evans, a recent Adrian High School graduate, is the program’s first apprentice. She shared her excitement: “Everyone at Kapnick was so welcoming during the apprenticeship open house in the spring. I’m excited to develop my skills, gain experience, and earn a degree—all without taking on student loans.”

Partnering with Jackson College

Kapnick partnered with Jackson College to bring this program to life. Amber Collins, Director of Workforce Training at Jackson College, said, “When Kapnick approached us, I was thrilled. This is exactly what students in our community need. After two years, apprentices will have real-world experience, a full-time job, no debt, and a degree. It’s a win for everyone.”

Kapnick Insurance’s apprenticeship program sets a new standard in the insurance industry. It highlights our dedication to growth, innovation, and community involvement.
