Liability Insurance

A school, school district, or other venue may ask that you provide a “Certificate of Liability Insurance” for your regional event. If the certificate is required, only the Region President may submit a request to WMEA.

1. Send a request via email to beth@wmea.org no less than three weeks in advance of the event.
   
   We do not process requests by phone and have no way to “rush” requests. Please check with your administrators about the named additional insured/certificate holder/business entity, in many cases it is the school district. We need to know that to avoid having to recreate the certificates. Your school has a policy for outside organizations to follow regarding liability insurance certificates. It is helpful if the information you provide is based on that policy.
   
   
2. In your email request for the certificate, please include all of the following:
   1. Region requesting the certificate.
   2. Region President’s name and email address.
   3. Name of the Entity person at the institution to whom the certificate should be mailed or emailed.
   4. Name of the additional insured/certificate holder/business entity (please check with your administrator before sending this information to WMEA). Provide the address, phone and official in charge with contact information.
   5. Email address to which the certificate will be sent.
   6. Name of the institution(s) (school, district or other venue) where the event(s) will be held.
   7. Mailing address of the institution(s). Please include the city, state and zip code.
   8. Name of the event(s) (e.g., Northlake Music Educators Solo and Ensemble Contest).
   9. Date(s) of the event(s).
