Nationʼs largest, independent program for educators

FTJ was one of the pioneers in offering professional liability insurance to educators —  way back in 1985. Today, we provide career protection to more than 80,000 teachers, administrators, and related professionals in all branches of education.

Multiple plans to protect virtually any educator:

  • W-2 employed educators, independent contractors, private practitioners, and student teachers
  • Educators in pre-school through post-secondary settings, plus those active in adult / continuing / alternative education programs
  • Educators in public and private institutions
  • Providing instruction or services online or in-person

Rates as low as $108 per year** for $1 million in liability protection for W-2 employed educators. Private practice/independent contractor rates start at $203 per year. Discounted rates available for students.


* Job protection benefits pertain to plans for employed educators only. Reimbursement for criminal defense costs is limited; see policy for details.

** Rates vary from $108 to $116 based on state of residence and association membership. Non-membership rates begin at $133.  A state-mandated $20 fee is added to the rates for Pennsylvania residents only.
