A blanket bond a private business or vocational school files to cover all of its sales representatives at once, rather than bonding each one separately. This is a legacy form — please read the note below on whether it is still required of you. Whatever amount you have been asked for, we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard blanket bond — enter your amount, pay, and you have the executed bond. Here is the whole thing:
Your school’s details, the blanket bond amount you were asked for, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed blanket bond to the authority or counterparty that asked for it. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure you were asked for and the premium updates.
A sales representatives blanket bond lets a private business or vocational school cover all of its sales representatives under a single bond, instead of filing a separate bond for each person who solicits or enrolls students. It backs honest conduct by those representatives in their dealings with prospective students.
This form traces back to the prior Private Business and Vocational Schools Act (105 ILCS 425), which the Illinois State Board of Education administered and which conditioned sales-representative permits on a bond — schools could file one blanket bond covering all of their reps. That Act was repealed effective February 1, 2012, when oversight moved to the IBHE.
The current Private Business and Vocational Schools Act of 2012 (105 ILCS 426) does not separately license sales representatives or, on its face, require a sales-representative bond. So treat this as a legacy or holdover requirement — confirm with whoever is asking whether you actually need it before you buy. If you do, we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the amount you were asked for — the executed blanket bond is generated instantly. If you are unsure this bond is still required, ask us first.
