ELITC has in place a Fee Protection Scheme Group Insurance (FPS-G) to protect applicable fees paid by local and international students. FPS protects students’ fees in the event that a Private Education Institution (PEI) is unable to continue operating due to insolvency, and/or closure, as well as if a PEI is unable to pay a judgement sum due to a student. Under the FPS Group Insurance, Certificate of Insurance (COI) will be issued to the PEIs by the FPS Insurance Providers with a determined insurable amount to cover all course fees to be collected by the PEI during the period of indemnity.
ELITC has appointed Lonpac Insurance Bhd as our FPS insurance provider.
