Tort Liability
Liability insurance must be purchased prior to beginning the first education class
(EDUC 2110/2120/2130 or SPED 3002/5002). This liability insurance will be needed for
the duration of your education program. Therefore, we recommend that you purchase
enough years of coverage to extend until your expected graduation date. Liability
insurance can be purchased from either SPAGE or SGAE (websites are listed below).
Proof of liability insurance must be provided to Jackie Creasy. For more information
