Standards in Practice: Beyond the Basics of Health, Safety and Security
The Forum is pleased to announce the inaugural Standards of Good Practice Institute to be held on Wednesday, March 24, 2010 in conjunction with the Forum Annual Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Institutes will offer participants the opportunity to broaden and deepen their knowledge and understanding of the Forum Standards of Good Practice and hone their skills in implementing them.
The first Institute, Beyond the Basics of Health, Safety and Security, will be dedicated to the risk management issues with which we all struggle. Risk management incidents generate specific concerns and questions that lead to broader questions, which lead to an overarching concern: What is the best way to manage risk in education abroad, and how do we make the right risk management decisions? The practical, hands-on focus for this day will include multiple concurrent and plenary sessions that will allow participants to improve their institutional and organizational strategies for incident prevention and response.
The Institute will be limited to 150 participants, with Forum members receiving priority registration and a discounted rate. You may register for the Institute at the same time you register for the conference. Registration opens on-line onThursday, October 15, 2009.
