Supplemental Coverage for Nevada State College Employees
Nevada State College serves the rapidly growing Henderson and southern Nevada community with a mission of access-focused higher education. Faculty and staff build careers dedicated to student success while earning academic salaries that, particularly at a newer and smaller institution, may be more modest than at UNLV or UNR. Individual supplemental life insurance through an A-rated (A.M. Best) carrier provides Nevada State employees with affordable, portable coverage that complements NSHE group benefits and PERS. Agents in our network serve Nevada State College employees in Henderson and the greater Las Vegas valley.
