Does the studio’s insurance cover me?
It may address the studio’s interests without protecting your independent teaching business. Ask who is insured, which activities are included and whether you need your own professional and general liability protection.
Is a certificate the same as changing the policy?
A certificate summarises information. Ask for confirmation of any requested endorsement, its scope and effective date; a certificate alone does not settle whether a particular allegation would be covered.
Should I disclose home and online sessions?
Yes. Describe all teaching formats and locations when requesting terms. Tell the provider about clients outside your home province or state, rather than treating every lesson as a local studio class.
Does sending an enquiry buy insurance?
No. It asks the network team to respond. Only a suitable provider can confirm an offer, acceptance and the effective insurance arrangement.
Can I enquire from Canada or the United States?
Choose your actual country and province, state or territory. Provider availability and eligibility depend on the market; sending an enquiry does not establish acceptance.
What should I leave out of the form?
Leave out medical records, government IDs, payment details and policy documents. Share general needs here; use a provider’s secure process if sensitive records are later required.
