Insurance

In academic courses, practica, and internships, HERS majors will be exposed to a wide array of school, clinical, and community experiences that enhance their education.  Students participating in these experiences will be assessed a nominal fee each academic year for professional liability insurance.  Yearly coverage is secured by an insurance provider determined by the Minnesota Office of Risk Management in cooperation with Minnesota State Colleges and Universities annually on an incident/occurrence and aggregate rate basis (currently minimum limits of $ 1 million/ $ 5 million per occurrence/aggregate respectively). 

In addition, student teachers may purchase liability insurance directly from the student chapter of the Education Minnesota Student Program (EMSP).  Such policies are available to other majors through their professional organizations.  Students should contact their advisor for more information.
