Over
the last number of years McGrady Insurance has taken pro-active
steps towards all staff members gaining professional
qualifications.
All staff have undertaken and passed Chartered Insurance
Institute exams at some level.
Rhonda Flynn, Fiona Cunningham and Colin Degan became the
most recent staff to attain their Chartered Insurance Institute
Certificate.
They, along with a number of others are progressing
towards the next level of qualification.
On passing his latest module Colin commented “With the
support of the company I have been able to sit the CII exams to
enhance my day to day knowledge and demonstrate to our clients
that they can trust us to advise them professionally.
It has given me more confidence when dealing with clients
and I want to keep pushing to gain further qualifications”.
Rhonda, Fiona and Colin are pictured along with some of
the other McGrady Insurance staff who have successfully gained
accreditations from the CII. |
Cookstown's
Glenn Allen has finally broken his duck in the Pacenotes MSA
Northern Ireland Stage Rally Championship, as he secured victory
at Saturday's McGrady Insurance Bishopscourt Stages Rally!
With
Damien Connolly calling the notes, Allen steered his Toyota
Corolla WRC to the top of the podium and emerged victorious by
just 9.7 seconds. In a day long battle, it was a closely fought
affair which went down to the wire between the Cookstown crew
and Dromara father and son team, Denis and Stuart Biggerstaff.
The
battle for production category honours, also known as Group N,
was just as intense. The spectacular Richard Cathcart had
returned in his Subaru, and he fought tooth and nail with Jim
Crozier, throughout the day. Fastest on the opening stage,
Cathcart and navigator William Mavitty grabbed the advantage
ahead of Kieron Graffin and Liam Reid, while Crozier and Laura
Marley were a close third.
The
event sponsor was in the thick of the action in this category as
Fintan and Cormac McGrady gave Camillus Bradley and Danny
O'Neill a run for their money.
