The Association of Governmental Risk Pools has recognized Property and Casualty Coverage for Education for its dedication to industry best practices. The Oregon school insurance risk pool was one of 10 to receive the 2025 AGRiP’s Advisory Standards for Recognition award during its recent national conference in Nashville.
AGRiP Recognition means PACE has successfully demonstrated detailed adherence to dozens of national advisory standards. The recognition, which indicates a pool is operating effectively, is good for three years.
“This award is a testament to two years of work by OSBA and PACE to update processes and policies to ensure our members can feel confident in their PACE coverage,” said Emielle Nischik, OSBA executive director.
PACE is jointly administered by OSBA and the Special Districts Association of Oregon. PACE is Oregon’s leading coverage pool for education, with nearly 300 public organizations as members.
