EVC Training – Educational Visit Coordinator Course

Description

School trips and off-site visits are a great way to enhance learning, but they don’t come without risk. This course from Risk Safety Services covers all the kinds of hazards you need to be ready for, especially when travel takes you overseas.

That could mean students falling ill because they didn’t get the right vaccinations, allergic reactions to bites or stings, or getting caught up in road traffic accidents due to poor driving standards or faulty vehicles.

Hazards We Cover:

• Lack of inoculations against diseases, infectious or otherwise if travelling abroad.
• Allergic reactions to: Poisons, stings or bites.
• Attack, mugging or robbery while travelling / driving in a foreign country.
• Road traffic accident due to poor driving standard in country visited.
• Faulty road vehicles.

In addition, you will learn about lack of security resulting in issues like theft, muggings, or scams is also a real concern. Not just when travelling, but even during downtime in hotels or hostels. If supervision isn’t tight, students can get separated from the group, especially in busy places like theme parks, city centres, or historical sites.

This is one of the EVC courses that also looks at how to handle situations where staff bring their own children on trips and how that can affect group management.

Weather is another factor that’s easy to overlook, with extreme heat, sun exposure, cold, or wet conditions that can all become serious problems without proper planning. This course helps you think ahead, spot the risks, and feel confident organising safe and well-managed educational visits.
