About the course

A thorough understanding of the Commercial General Liability (CGL) policy is fundamental to every commercial insurance broker. This course provides a practical, broker-focused review of the four primary CGL coverage sections, explaining not only what each coverage protects, but also where important limitations, exclusions, and policy conditions can affect the outcome of a claim. You'll gain the knowledge needed to analyze liability exposures, advise clients with confidence, and properly position coverage before a loss occurs. Beginning with Coverage A, you'll examine third-party bodily injury and property damage, occurrence triggers, and the major exclusions that frequently require specialized insurance solutions. The course then explores Coverages B, C, and D, including personal and advertising injury, no-fault medical payments, and tenants legal liability. Finally, you'll learn Supplementary Payments and the CGL Conditions.
