    Youth/Stu dent G roup ProgramEvery year thousands of students expand their horizons by travelling across the country, the continent and sometimes the world.

    Travel insurance is an essential part of every trip and you can ensure they have the coverage they need with the RBC Insurance

    Youth/Student Group program.

    Our program is designed to provide comprehensive travel insurance protection for full time student groups and their chaperones.

    Coverage comes with a full range of benefits, including 24/7 global emergency assistance, baggage and personal effects insurance

    as well as upfront payment of eligible emergency medical expenses where possible so your group is not out-of-pocket.

    Plus your group will be covered if the following student-specific events occur:

    > Being required to attend a University or College examination, during their travel period,when the examination date is set after their travel arrangements are booked.

    > Their failure of an examination, which requires them to re-sit the examination during their travel period.> A school board cancels a trip due to a teachers labour strike; or determines there is a risk of harm to students during their trip

    when they are scheduled to travel to a specific region of a country during their travel period.
