Continuing Education

Continuing education courses are important for helping design professionals, and their employees, enhance their awareness of current trends and best practices and increase their knowledge across relevant industry disciplines and subject areas.

DPLE is a series of seminars for brokers and insureds to lower insurance costs through improved risk management and reducing the expenses associated with continuing education courses.

How DPLE courses are delivered

DPLE courses are delivered in the following formats:

In person: Your broker will deliver educational materials and presentations at a location convenient to you.

Webinar: The same information is also available via an online webinar and is delivered to you by your broker, possibly with help from RLI. Learn more about our webinars.

Approved RLI Design Professionals brokers can request DPLE courses by contacting Client Risk Management Coordinator Laurel Tenuto.

DPLE Course Descriptions

DPLE courses take design professionals, project managers and firm principals through a graduated series of presentations, with each topic building upon the last. The end result of each track is a well-rounded basis in risk management best practices.
