Tort Liability Insurance Information
| Teacher education students are required to obtain Tort Liability Insurance prior to any field experience. This insurance covers expenses related to civil suits brought against education students for acts or omissions that occur at a school. No amount of vigilance or professionalism can prevent some accidents. Also, a suit that incurs expenses can be brought against a person even if it is groundless. For these reasons, education students are required to obtain tort liability insurance. Tort Liability insurance is required for field experiences in any class and for practicum experiences. Be advised that you will need to provide proof of coverage each semester to your instructor in which one of these experiences occurs since coverages/memberships can lapse yearly. Proof of coverage can be documented by a photocopy of the membership card in SGAE, PAGE, or other professional organization that provides Tort Liability Insurance; a copy of the membership letter or a copy of the membership card; or other proof of private insurance. |
