Testimonials - 2022
Here are what attendees had to say about the 2022 school:
As a first timer and someone who has visited many conferences, I believe this to be one of the most valuable and informative learning opportunities over the past 4 days that I have had the privilege to be a part of!
Leigh Grant
The school was better than I expected. The content, organization and fellowship was great. Relevant topics, motivated presentations. I feel that new attendees like myself were welcomed and felt like part of a team. The quality attendees to learn and meet was fantastic. Thanks to board, well done.
Vince McKay
This was my first year attending Banff School. I came in with high expectations based on word of mouth from others, and the week exceeded them! Fantastic speakers on timely and critically important subjects. Attending the school certainly gives a lift to competence and confidence! I’ve already registered for next year! Thank you for a fantastic event.
Jeff Nason
I attended my first Banff School this year and was not disappointed! From the inspirational speaker on day 1 to the closing comments before heading hoe, every session offered great value and education direction to take home and improve my professional confidence. I will definitely be attending for many years to come!
Marina Bailey-Harwood
It was so amazing to be in the mountains surrounded by like minded people. It is impossible to put a value on the information given, and the relationships made. I look forward to coming back year after year!
Tyrell Zaporosky
Set in an inspiring location in Banff, Alberta, the Banff School offers a unique opportunity for education, fellowship, and mentorship to students of the life insurance industry. An annual event held in August at the Banff Centre and not to be missed!

A must attend event! What a wonderful way to learn, collaborate with colleagues, and grow your business – all while enjoying the hospitality and spectacular views of the Rockies'
Shelley Chanut
I’m proud to have emcee’d this 66th school. The committee, speakers and sponsors were a delight. Everyone should plan to attend Banff School. It’s a great combination of learning, networking and partying.
Caron Czorny
40 years in the industry. I never got to Banff School till the last 20 years. A big mistake. The education is first rate but the exchange with other advisors is priceless.
Patrick Souliere (Thank you for all the years).
The best value by far, that you can get for your money. You cannot miss, you will more than get your money back.

Where else can you attend a conference which delivers exceptional education, presented by best in class advisors (be they lawyers, accountants, underwriters or insurance specialists) whilst providing opportunity for camaraderie and collaboration? Banff School continues to bring value.
Micheline Varas
Wonderful school, collaborators, and all to help young advisors grow and learn and maybe get a mentor. Middle-aged advisors to get reinvigorated and learn a couple of new things. Great school for all advisors!
Chris Mossing
The 66th school was an amazing experience. Speakers, content, surroundings and people who attended were well worth to come for.
Scott Grant
The quality of education is superb, it is rare to go to a conference for advisors that provides this level of content, assuming that those in attendance are well educated and professional, it is refreshing and well appreciated.
Suzanne Smith-Demers
As always, this year’s school provided a wealth of useful and practical information.
John Crawford
Banff School will reset your thinking about life, your business, your future.
Dawn Vader
The Banff School never fails to deliver top notch presenters and concepts to advisors. Advisors need to add this event to their calendar.
