What the course covers

The course material is an extensive overview of Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance, explaining why it is necessary for sales and service professionals due to increasing litigation and complex business transactions. It defines E&O as coverage for negligent acts, errors, or omissions in professional services, while explicitly excluding intentional wrongdoing like fraud or punitive damages. The text details the true costs associated with E&O claims, covering lost reputation, defense costs, and lost earnings, and provides numerous case examples illustrating various types of professional liability claims across industries. Furthermore, the source offers practical advice on actions that minimize E&O claims, such as robust documentation and quality control, and compares the differences between claims-made and occurrence policies, including key exclusions and policy elements like retroactive dates.
