Education - Property Casualty

Coverage Your
Institution Needs and
Your Employees Want

The Hartford has been providing insurance to educational institutions since the early 1800s, so we understand their unique coverage and risk management needs. Our range of property and casualty insurance coverages and services are designed for private non-profit schools, colleges and universities.

Coverages

Educational institutions have many of the same insurance needs that businesses do – from coverage for property and automobiles to protection against liability claims. They also have other unique needs that are specific to their facility.

In addition to auto, workers compensation and umbrella coverage, some of the coverages we offer to educational institutions include:

  • General Liability and Educators Legal Liability
    We provide a broad array of general liability enhancements specific to educators – as well as a full spectrum of professional liability coverages tailored to educational institutions. This includes coverage for Directors and Officers, Employment Practices, Educators Errors & Omissions and Employee Benefits.
  • Sexual Abuse and Molestation
    We offer an optional General Liability endorsement that provides coverage for negligence relating to sexual abuse or molestation (defense costs outside limits).
  • Property
    Our strong property capability can be enhanced with unique coverage for athletic uniforms, musical instruments and personal effects of both faculty and students.
  • Crisis Event Coverage
    The Hartford offers protection for crisis events impacting students and staff. Tragic or violent acts that occur on campus need special care. Coverage is available to help with communication, counseling and other post-crisis expenses.

Service Offerings

  • Loss Control
    The Hartford has a wide array of education-specific risk management services offered through email, online and in person by our professional Loss Control staff. Some of these services include webinars, TIPS papers, and onsite consultations.
  • Vendor Programs
    The Hartford also offers discounted vendor services to our education clients, including:
