We are due to renew our professional indemnity insurance, copyright infringement, product liability insurance, (which a couple of our major customers require us to have), but I am concerned that our current insurance is not really geared to the traing industry, and we are probably paying for things we don't need. Can anyone recommend a supplier of professional indemnity insurance suitable to training companies?
