What is some important information that you should know about as a high school participant?

Information for high school participants – Our recommendation! The PROTRIP-WORLD insurance for high school participants adapts to your travel plans. You have the choice between different travel regions and you can also flexibly choose the scope of insurance: PROTRIP-WORLD always includes a strong international health insurance. We especially recommend high school participants to supplement their insurance cover with the Comfort or Plus Package to be able to travel and work without worries. The two packages differ in the scope of the liability insurance. The Plus Package includes a higher basic insurance sum and covers, for example, the risk of losing your keys and damages arising from an act of favor (e.g. you water your neighbors’ flowers while they are away and knock over a valuable vase, OR you empty the mailbox of your out-of-town neighbors and your key breaks off).

Are your plans to work abroad as an au pair?

In this case you should at least buy the Comfort Package. Liability claims within the scope of the au pair activity are insured up to 1 million Euro. This coverage is also valid for language students who live with families with children and carry out similar activities as au pairs. However, we recommend the conclusion of the Plus Package, because it covers additional claims which can occur within the scope of an au pair activity.
