This is a one day workshop specifically designed for independent schools running wildnerness trips, international trips, or immersive experiences. It is a pre-Institute offering at the Independent Schools Experiential Education Network (ISEEN) Winter Institute, taught by NOLS faculty. You do not have to attend the ISEEN Winter Institute to attend the pre-institute workshop.
You have a responsibility to your faculty and students to invest in risk management planning, whether you are running international or wilderness trips, or planning immersive experiences closer to home. Building a comprehensive risk management plan can feel daunting and independent schools face unique needs. This workshop will cover essential topics for any independent school leader running outdoor, international, or immersive programming and will help you identify next steps in developing your school's risk management plan.
Topics include:
At NOLS, we've spent more than 58 years managing risk in wilderness environments around the world, and have worked with independent schools on expeditions, wilderness medicine, and risk management. Join us to connect and share your valuable experience with peer programs and let us share our experience and lessons learned with you.
