VAS is definitely as advertised. In fact, they probably offer more than you’re currently expecting from the training, mentoring, and resources aspect. Before attending the training I wouldn’t have believed I could have accomplished the objectives set out in the training. But through the knowledge of the instructors and the phenomenal way the training is delivered, even the most inexperienced person is provided with the tools needed to succeed. I am so grateful that VAS was available and that I was able to attend. The lessons were spot on and definitely have prepared me to be effective in the field right away.

As a Veteran, I was a bit nervous about my transition out of the military. When I started my research on future employment I had no idea what industry was right for me or the skills that I’d spent 20 years attaining. When I chose insurance adjusting I had no clue what that really meant until I came across the VAS website. From that point on the transition from Active Duty to VAS student to CAT adjuster has been an extremely smooth one.

If you are concerned about opportunities once you graduate from VAS, I’d acknowledge those concerns are warranted. However, trust the Instructors and former students when they say there are plenty of opportunities in this field. Whether you choose to work as an Independent Adjuster or as a Staff Adjuster (as I currently am), you will definitely be more than prepared, have skills above and beyond even some of the most seasoned adjusters, and have the opportunity to make GREAT money.

4 Reasons You Should Consider CAT Adjusting

Not many people are familiar with catastrophe (or CAT) adjusting. It has been a pretty well-hidden career for a long time. Recently however the need for CAT Adjusters has grown. First off, you might be thinking, “what is catastrophe adjusting?”

What Is Catastrophe Insurance Adjusting?

When a hurricane, wildfire, hail storm or any other natural disaster occurs, insurance agencies send out independent catastrophe adjusters to estimate how much compensation the customer is entitled to under their policy. The adjusters are typically deployed to the affected region for weeks or months at a time running claims for the policyholders.

4 Reasons You Should Consider Catastrophe Adjusting

1. High Paying Job

CAT adjusters have great earning potential. In as little as 6 months a hardworking adjuster can make up to 6 figures. The typical income ranges between $70,000 – $100,000. The actual pay depends on the storm season and the work ethic of the adjuster since they are paid per claim closed.

2. Self Employed

Catastrophe adjusters are mostly independent contractors. They are paid by the insurance agencies but work for themselves. They make their own hours and can work at their own pace within limits. For most, that is a quick pace as they are trying to close as many claims as possible.

3. A Lot Of Vacation Time

What’s the point of making a lot of money if you can’t enjoy it? Well, CAT adjusters generally work during the storm season which lasts about 6 – 9 months. That leaves 6 – 3 months off. However, if that isn’t enough work, catastrophe adjusters can also work day claims directly for insurance agencies in the off time as well.

4. Helping People

CAT adjusters bring help when people need it the most. After the storm has hit, adjusters help people back on their feet by providing the compensation they desperately need.

Perfect Job For Veterans

Veterans are trained and prepared by the best to be the best. They have also acquired unique skills that don’t always translate over to a civilian job. But CAT adjusting isn’t like most jobs. It requires a unique ethic and mindset that soldiers obtain during military service. For a hard worker, a CAT adjuster can make $100,000 in 6-9 months during the storm season.

What is CAT Adjusting?

When a catastrophic event (like a hurricane, hail storm, etc.) occurs, insurance agencies will deploy independent CAT adjusters to assess the damages of their customers’ homes to see how much compensation their customer is entitled to under their policy. These adjusters are usually independently contracted and are typically deployed to a storm to cover the affected region. Adjusters are paid per claim that they close and it is not uncommon for a CAT adjuster to make “6 figures in 6 months.”

The 4 characteristics required to be a successful CAT adjuster include:

Organization
Hard-Work
Self-Motivation
Dedication
