CELINA, Ohio, Dec. 31, 2024 — Brayton Adams, Associate Commercial Lines Underwriter at Celina Insurance Group, recently earned the Associate in Commercial Underwriting (AU) designation.

The AU program is a specialized curriculum administered by The Institutes, an organization dedicated to providing accreditation and continuing education to insurance professionals. Adams earned this recognition after completing courses on insurance services and ethics and passing the required exams.

“I enjoy commercial insurance because when we are busy writing policies, that means businesses—especially the small businesses that Celina likes to work with—are flourishing,” Adams said. “The coursework for this designation has strong applications for my position and will help me apply new perspectives when working on insured accounts.”

Adams joined Celina in 2019. He is a graduate of Wright State University-Lake Campus and also holds an Associate in Insurance (AINS) designation.

“Brayton is a key member of our Commercial Lines team, and he can always be counted on to provide friendly, helpful service to our agency partners,” Bill Hull, Commercial Lines Underwriting Manager, said. “We’re glad we had this opportunity to support his ongoing education.”
