What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Under Nebraska’s Private Postsecondary Career School Act, a person employed to recruit students or otherwise represent a school is a school agent and must hold a permit and a $5,000 surety bond with the Department of Education.
The bond is a student-protection guarantee: it backs the agent’s conduct in recruiting and enrolling students, so a student harmed by the agent’s violation of the Act can recover against the bond — up to the $5,000 amount.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Schools with several recruiters can instead use a blanket agent bond covering all of them in one filing.
