147 The Annual Professional Liability Insurance Episode

By Tec Clark Leave a Comment

In this episode of The Dive Locker Podcast we look at the 2022-2023 professional liability insurance market for diving professionals.

Welcome To The Show!

Welcome to The Dive Locker Podcast, the podcast for dive professionals where we bring you the latest in diving industry resources that make you excellent at teaching techniques, risk management and dive business.

Well it’s that time of year when most of us dive pro’s are binding our individual or group professional liability insurance policies. So, I am doing this year’s episode on professional liability insurance. Now, you might be saying thanks Tec for waiting to the last minute for this episode. Well my friends, this has been a topsy turvy ride that I myself had to figure out for both my individual and group policy options. And yes, after decades of being with Vicencia and Buckley I have gone to another insurance policy. I’ll tell you who and why in this episode, but mostly I will share the decision making behind it, in case you too are at a crossroads.

Also, if you have not listened to episode 42 The Ultimate Professional Liability Insurance Episode: Which Policy is Right for You. I strongly encourage you to do so. Although that was put out a couple years ago, and some of the players have changed a little, the information in that episode is solid and foundational. So if you really don’t know much at all about professional liability insurance, listen to that episode before listening to this one.

And, folks I am targeting the release of my new Risk Management for Dive Professionals course to come out next week! In fact Wednesday July 6th is my target release date. I have finalized the course and am just building the sales pages and so forth. And it is really good. So look out for the release of the course next week!
