Curriculum

“I had absolutely no idea what LILI could do for my career and my personal life! After graduating from LILI, I won Agent of the Year two years in a row. I know without a doubt, LILI is what got me over the hump.”
– Kelly R. Dickson, LUTCF, CLU, NAIFA Central Texas, Southern Farm Bureau Agent

“LILI is probably the best six month commitment that I’ve made. I developed meaningful bonds with fellow agents and read great books that have become tools for life.”
– Edward J. Hendricks, LUTCF, NAIFA-Northern Nevada, President of Hendricks & Associates
