Why ARC Academy?
True expertise is earned. ARC Strategic Services offers more than just statutory accounting courses. We provide deep-bench expertise from those who have the same perspective you operate from daily.
In an industry dominated by “one-size-fits-all” training and high-turnover sales teams, ARC Academy is the exception. While other vendors leave you trapped in billing loops and unreturned emails, we provide direct access to the experts who actually do the work.
- No Ghosting: You get a responsive partner, not an automated ticket system.
- No Sales Rotations: You will not have to re-explain your business to a new rep every six months.
- No Out-of-the-Box Generalities: Our curriculum is built from decades of combined, hands-on experience by former Insurance Company CFOs, Certified Financial Examiners, and an Insurance Commissioner.

Unlike vendors that leave you trapped in billing loops and unreturned emails, ARC Academy is built by people who have sat in your chair. Our instructors are former insurance CFOs, financial examiners, and accounting professionals with decades of hands-on experience in statutory accounting. We focus on what actually matters: NAIC requirements, common mistakes, and practical documentation. Good training reduces filing errors, audit findings, key-person dependency, and close cycle time. Each line of business (P&C, Life, Health) gets distinct, relevant content built by practitioners, not salespeople.

Testimonials
Our clients' thoughts
We are thrilled to be partnering with the ARC team! We initially brought them on board to help with our NAIC statutory filings. The experience of this team was instrumental in helping us enhance our Notes as well as several schedules, including Schedules D and E. They helped with process improvement for data coordination for the Notes and Schedules. This will ensure efficiency, accuracy and completeness well into the future. The team’s deep expertise beyond basic accounting and statutory reporting allows them to effectively assist with inquiries from the regulators. They help relieve the statutory and regulatory burden, allowing me to focus on other strategic areas of the business. I would highly recommend ARC Strategic Services.
At Investors Preferred, we understand that a solid ERM framework can increase risk-related focus across all functions of our business. We wanted a partner with an established ERM track record, and we were impressed with ARC's robust experience working with insurance firms like ours. We were confident the ARC's team would be able to appreciate the complex regulatory environment we face.
Partnering with the ARC team has been an excellent decision! I met the team at a conference and knew immediately they had the knowledge and professionalism we were looking for to help with a variety of needs, starting with our statutory filings. Q1 filing was completed early, which removed the stress of meeting the deadline. This team has such deep insurance regulatory expertise, I can feel confident that the filings are done accurately and in full compliance with the NAIC.
Brian has also made recommendations and helped by improving the process for our cash reconciliations and mapping data over to the statutory statement. I recently requested they help with another process improvement project that I anticipate will save us considerable time on a monthly basis. I cannot recommend ARC Strategic Services enough. They are a great team to work with!
ARC Strategic Services has been an invaluable partner in supporting our statutory reporting and regulatory compliance efforts. Their team brings a high level of expertise in NAIC reporting, and their work on our Risk-Based Capital analysis and financial schedules has strengthened both our reporting accuracy and internal processes. They are responsive, detail-oriented, and consistently deliver high-quality work. Just as important, they work collaboratively with our team and feel like a true extension of our organization.
Our company is looking to move forward and improve our Annual Statement filing accounting and preparation methods. After meeting with the team from ARC Strategic Services, we confidently feel that we are on the right path to making those improvements.

I can’t say enough about how easy they are to talk with and it was a true pleasure to meet with such a great team.
ARC Strategic Services has made a meaningful impact on how we approach financial reporting and regulatory compliance. Their team took the time to understand our processes and quickly identified opportunities to improve efficiency, including automating key reporting functions and refining our consolidated financial statements. What stands out most is their ability to combine deep insurance accounting expertise with practical solutions that actually work in a day-to-day environment. We now have stronger processes, better data visibility, and more confidence in our reporting.
The ARC team was a wonderful find for AllCare Health and the perfect fit for our team and our needs. Their depth of knowledge and experience in insurance accounting and regulatory compliance is unmatched and we are so happy to be partnering with them. We initially brought them in to assist with regulatory compliance and various forms completion. We quickly realized the depth of their knowledge and have expanded their work to include readiness for our examination as well as a policy and procedures review and enhancement. Our mission includes leading the way to better healthcare for Oregon and its people. A part of meeting that mission is assurance that we continue to maintain excellent processes to propel us into the future and effectively support our members. The ARC team has so much knowledge and experience to bring to that effort. They are relieving the statutory and regulatory burden, allowing our team to focus on other high impact areas of the organization. I would highly recommend ARC Strategic Services.
I had great experiences collaborating with ARC Strategic Services while I was a Senior Manager at MCM CPAs & Advisors LLP. When I took the role of Director of Finance & Accounting with KY AGC/SIF, I knew I could use their unique and tailored experiences for our large transition accounting & system needs. The ARC team has valued expertise ranging anywhere from project management, systems implementation, regulatory compliance, and CFO services. With ARC on our side, I know the Fund is setting itself up for future success and growth.
