Risk Management Services
Not only do our Directors of Risk Management advocate for the institutions they serve but the EIIA Risk Management
Services are exclusively designed to address risks inherent to institutions of higher education.
We'll help you find the answers to questions like these:
- What is the worst thing that could happen to your institution?
- How does your insurance coverage compare to other educational institutions?
EIIA has assembled a dedicated risk management team of professionals to work closely with you to implement a
program that meets your institution's distinctive risk challenges and requirements.
Membership in EIIA has its advantages
More than a business arrangement for managing risk and reducing the costs of insurance, EIIA's consortia
members serve as an advisory body. They regularly share insights and timely counsel with each other on the
practices and activities that work best for their institutions.
Our program provides a wide range of risk management services:
- Risk Management Advice
- Risk Awareness Education
- Higher Education-Specific Risk Control Programs
- Security Vulnerability Assessments
- Campus Risk Awareness Tools
- Exposure Analysis
- Claims Management
- Enterprise Risk Management Consulting
Risk Management Advice
- The EIIA Risk Management Team continuously reviews potential exposures to loss arising from on-campus and
off-campus activities. The Team provides advice and situation analysis to help institutions avoid unnecessary
risk. A library of risk management materials is available to all members on the EIIA website, as well.
Risk Awareness Education
- The Risk Management Team hosts regional seminars and webinars on various topics at no cost to members.
- Scheduled risk management consultations raise the awareness of risk management issues across campus. EIIA
Directors of Risk Management visit your campus and lead risk-focused discussions with administrators, faculty,
and staff.
- The innovative IT/Security Analysis visit by the Director of Risk Management/IT provides an in-depth
review of your institution's information technology exposures.
Higher Education-Specific Risk Programs
- The EIIA Property Risk Control Manual includes a sample disaster recovery plan plus checklists and guidelines
for fire protection and life safety on campus.
- The EIIA Casualty Risk Control Manual provides members with higher education-specific programs designed to
help reduce workers compensation and liability losses. The manual is organized in three sections to help guide
you through the program development process: Risk Management Administration, Strategic Risk Control Programs,
and Advanced Risk Control Programs including OSHA Guidelines.
