I understand that this application is subject to approval with no automatic inclusion in the program. My digital signature shall verify that I have completed this application accurately and honestly and that I agree to provide proof of training should I be asked to provide it in the event of a claim.

I understand that if my application is approved, the premium/fees paid by me are nonrefundable, nontransferable and will not be prorated. This application is for liability coverage which is in force for one year from the date of approval. Denied applications will be refunded less any associated fees resulting from the method of payment (i.e. credit card charges).

I understand and agree to pay a fee or $35 or 10% of the cost of the transaction, whichever is greater, for returned checks or for credit card payments that are either disputed or refunded by a third party.

I understand that I am responsible to verify that the coverage is appropriate to my training and professional activity, and that activities outside the scope of coverage of the policy are not covered. Specific coverages and exclusions are determined by the policy and the list of exclusions and limitations.  I understand that a complete copy of the insurance policy is available on the member portal.

I acknowledge that APC defines Business coaching as an educational activity where the coach provides information and techniques to enhance and improve business function and performance but does not provide specific business direction or legal or financial advice. I understand offering licensed professional business advice is not covered.

I acknowledge that APC defines Life/ Health/ Relationship coaching as an educational activity where the coach provides information and techniques to enhance and improve the life, health or general wellbeing of the client but does not provide prescriptions, diagnosis or offer medical advice or treatment.

I understand that activities outside the scope of providing energy medicine treatments are not covered except as described in the policy. Representation of activities that are outside of this scope as Energy Medicine modalities or methods constitutes fraud and will void the insurance.
