One for US lawyers mainly

So a law suit is filed against the US training provider.

Their insurance company will provide cover up to a maximum amount?
Once that pot of gold is used up, then the company's assets are targeted?

There will be a finite and probably comparatively small amount (in US legal terms) available for any compensation.
CH 11 court protection?

And that will be it so far as the US is concerned.

Might there be richer pickings in Europe, and are the limited liability companies likely to provide the operator with protection?
