Liability Issues

The University has liability coverage for GW internships that covers students engaging in activity in the nature of field work placement, non-medical internships, on the job training, student teaching, or activities of a similar or like nature provided that the Named Insured has knowledge of such activity and approves of it as relating to academic pursuits.

Limits of this liability are: Each claim $2,000,000
Annual Aggregate $2,000,000

Interns can also purchase additional liability coverage through student membership in one of the following professional organizations:
1) National Education Association
2) Council for Exceptional Children
3) National Association for the Education of Young Children

This additional protection would cover interns during times when they may be participating in activities at their school which are not directly related to their internship such as after school programs and events (OLE will provide applications to interested students).
