How Does a Hawaii Private Trade, Vocational or Technical School Bond Work? 

As with all surety bonds, a private school bond creates a legal contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the private trade, vocational, or technical school owner(s) filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Hawaii Department of Education requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for refunding tuition funds if the school goes out of business. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire every two years. To renew your private school bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
