AKE’s safety awareness and travel courses act as a
stand alone course or to reinforce and expand on the client organization’s policy
and procedures for its personnel while traveling. We help you put the risks into
perspective and give personnel the skills and confidence to deal with situations
and thereby remain in control.
Our safety awareness and travel courses are taught at one of AKE's international
training centres, or alternatively we can bring the course to a location of your
choice. Rather than offering a set course irrespective of your profession, we
prefer to conduct a training needs analysis with the client, find out what their
objectives are first, and then arrange course dates and a locations that suit them,
so they receive the most effective training possible.
Depending on the client’s travel needs and itinerary the course can be delivered as
a targeted country workshop of a days duration or as a Safety Awareness Travel
Course over two days. The course is delivered in a blend of lectures and
practical scenarios, supported by video footage and materials. The programme is
comprehensive and interactive, and can include a series of challenging and
realistic training scenario based exercises where you put what you've learned
into practice.
The skills and knowledge taught include the following categories:
Preparation and Travel Planning
Cultural Awareness
Hotel and Residential Security
Medical and Prevention of Disease
Risk Assessment and Risk Reduction
Vehicle Travel and Security
Contingency Planning
AKE’s safety awareness and travel courses are complemented
by an introduction to Global Intake, AKE's online intelligence
and information website, comprehensive Notes and Cultural
and Medical Considerations for Women Travelers.
