ADVANCED COVERAGE
CLASSROOM & REMOTE (16 HOURS – CE)
Advanced Level – understanding how a policy responds at claim time

The insurance policies that we provide to motor carriers are used in three ways: to meet government financial responsibility requirements, to meet insurance requirements of customers and to respond when a crash happens.
The Advanced Coverage course will look at a crash and what damage can be done to: the public, the unit, the cargo and the driver.
We will look at each area of damage and will determine how the insurance policy(ies) will respond or not respond.
Experienced insurance professionals will join the discussion as the participants review claim scenarios: the facts, the policies that apply and how coverage will respond. No exam is required with this course.
