Risk Management For Outdoor Education Xperiential Education

Where do you start

with Risk Management? With any experiential education, you have a professional

responsibility to pro-actively manage risk. This is an ever-evolving and

dynamic skill-set that you develop over the years through training and

experience. It’s something we can never take for granted. We take a look at

some of the challenges we face in managing risk and what can happen, when

things don’t go to plan.







In this episode,

we talk with Paul Tame, who is a leading risk management trainer with Xcursion

Risk Management Training, Lead corporate management trainer for Zen Training

& Senior lecturer at Western State Uni Colorado. We take a dive into risk

management for experiential education and touch on a few challenges we all face

when planning and running programs.







Often things look

great on paper. However, how does that translate into the real world? With risk

management for any sort of activity, it needs to be a living and breathing

culture within your organisation and not just a bit of paperwork someone

completed and then filed away.
