Higher Education insurance is a specialized product with specific coverages designed to protect colleges and universities against the numerous hazards they may face. We offer dedicated insurance packages tailored to fit the needs of our higher education clients. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive about our coverage.

Do we cover college sporting events?
We offer excellent coverage for college athletic events, provided there are CDC concussion procedures in place at the institution. Contact sports injuries like concussions and traumatic brain injuries are a major issue in higher education, costing colleges millions of dollars every year. Our coverage options include participant accident and student accident insurance to protect college staff members and student-athletes in the event of an incident.

Do we cover extracurricular events?
Yes. Colleges and universities often host extracurricular events both during the academic year and during school breaks. We cover a wide range of these extracurricular activities for our higher education clients.

Some examples include:

– Special Events and volunteer service activities
– Arts and performance events
– Multicultural activities
– Academic events

Many colleges and universities also host summer camps and recreation programs – many of which may involve minors. Because of our decades of experience in risk management, we bring a high level of expertise in protecting minors for extracurricular events on college campuses. In this area, we offer superior abuse prevention services, which includes access to:

What risk management services do we offer?
Our insurance programs for higher education feature a number of risk management solutions that are designed specifically for educational institutions.

We empower college administrators to take a proactive approach to deter inappropriate behavior with STOPit, an anonymous reporting system that allows students to flag potential abuse, threats, and suicide risks in real-time. This technology solution for regulatory compliance and risk management is offered at no additional cost to eligible customers.

In addition to programs like STOPit, we offer several pieces of training and materials that cover topics such as:

– Active shooter training and campus security

– Skillful screening for prospective employees (with special discounts on background checks)

We also offer a hotline for legal consultations for employment-related issues when coverage is purchased from our partners and property evaluations to help prevent common occurrences like pipe freezing. All of these risk management solutions from our partners are designed to meet the unique needs of colleges and universities.
