For Active & Former Military Veterans
A Career with Purpose
As an adjuster, in the event of a disaster, you are part of a large support system that offers hope and assistance to those affected while earning a living.
What is An Insurance Claims Adjuster?
A claims adjuster is a representative of the insurance company. After a policyholder submits a claim, the adjuster comes in to investigate the loss. The loss can be anything from a major home flood or fire to a small window break or fender bender. They inspect homes, conduct interviews, consult records, or perform any number of duties to gather the details surrounding the reported event. The adjuster then interprets the customer’s insurance policy and determines what is covered. In many cases, adjusters negotiate the settlement on behalf of the insurance carrier and may authorize payments to the policyholder.
Advantages of Becoming An Adjuster
- Freedom to choose who to work for and the kind of assignment or location
- Income Flexibility
- Economic Stability
- More down time for vacations between assignments
How Do I Become An Adjuster?
In most states, you need to be licensed to adjust claims. The process, steps, and fees vary a bit by state but generally follow the same pattern. Get your home state, or Designated Home State (DHS) license if you live in a nonlicensing state. You need to take and pass your state adjuster exam, and submit a license application.

Part Time Adjuster: Avg Pay $92,000 / Year
"Made the transition from wind claims to flood. The very intensive training prepared me with the tools to adjust NFIP flood claims efficiently. Taught me the flood policy, scoping techniques, on-site inspection of a dwelling as well as writing and uploading a perfect claims package.
NFIP Flood Bootcamp provided a booklet and software to greatly assist completing the claim in the field. Sometimes it may be several months until you actually get deployed to do the claims. And one of the hazards of training is that you quickly forget what you learned if you don't use it. With the NFIP Flood Bootcamp, access to the online training and the provided manual and software, you can get right back up to speed once your opportunity comes.
This is a perfect job and perfect training for a veteran. Working storms is like going to war - a storm (war) breaks out, you have to grab your gear and head out, very intense and physically demanding. But if you are properly trained (like a sailor or soldier), you will be more likely to succeed. This training is just that - your bullets and techniques to succeed. I highly recommend this training for veterans."
