As we move forward in 2025, Enduris continues to demonstrate resilience, innovation, and a strong commitment to shared success. One of the most relevant topics shaping the risk pool industry right now is the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI). Pools are exploring how AI can enhance operations, improve member services, and strengthen risk management. Our recent focus on AI experimentation—including developing effective use policies and fostering a culture of continuous learning—positions us to harness these new tools responsibly and effectively. In fact, this article was created with the help of AI. Rest assured that any of our communications that are AI-assisted are reviewed thoroughly by staff. While AI does offer improved efficiencies, we never want to overlook the real-world knowledge and expertise of our staff.
Collaboration and knowledge sharing are at the heart of our mission. Whether it’s providing summer playground safety guidance or updating training resources, Enduris makes it a priority to pursue excellence and impactful risk management strategies and share best practices. Even if you only have a few minutes, check out our “Quick Clicks” on the Enduris website. It’s our expanding library of bite-sized learning designed just for Enduris members. New insightful content drops regularly, so stop by often and stay ahead.
Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Your dedication to risk management strategies in Washington communities not only drives public safety but also helps Enduris – your risk pool- keep costs low and offer excellent service. Together, we are building a more effective, collaborative, and informed community—one that is well-equipped to meet today’s challenges and seize tomorrow’s opportunities.
