An insurance certificate is a document that verifies the existence of insurance coverage to satisfy contractual insurance requirements. When a contract or agreement requires a Certificate of Insurance from the University, you will need to contact the Risk Management & Insurance office to process the request. Examples of certificates requested may include General Liability, Workers’ Compensation, and Automobile Liability.
Certificates are sent to the requester in pdf format by email. Please allow for at least five business days for a response when requesting insurance certificates. In order to process your request, we will need the following:
For use of a venue:
- The type of activity
- The number of attendees

- The name and address of the Certificate Holder and a copy of the portion of the contract that outlines the insurance request. It is generally listed under the title “Indemnity” or “Insurance”
