Proactive Risk Management for a New Global Landscape

Study Abroad is Changing – Is Your Institution Ready?

Study abroad remains one of the most transformative experiences a student can have — but as travel continues to increase and global threats evolve, the risks have never been greater. From mental health crises and changing federal regulations to political uprisings, climate emergencies, and even student fatalities, the risk curve for international travel has shifted — sharply. Institutions must act now to protect their travelers and academic integrity.

Join us on December 9, 2025, for a high-impact 90-minute training session where our expert presenter will help you build the frameworks, policies, and protocols your institution needs to safeguard students, faculty, and your academic mission. You’ll gain immediately actionable strategies to evaluate, enhance, and future-proof your study abroad risk management protocols. Through real-world case studies and legal examples, you’ll learn how to anticipate and mitigate danger — and position your institution to thrive.

As global threats become more complex and unpredictable, institutions must rise to meet legal, ethical, and operational challenges head-on — or face costly, even tragic consequences. Ensure your travelers are prepared. Protect your institution. Lead confidently into a rapidly changing world.

Topics Covered

You’ll leave this session with actionable tools to:

  • Mitigate legal and institutional liability -understand the new risk landscape and implement safeguards that reduce exposure to lawsuits, reputational damage, and international incident fallout.
  • Develop training that prepares students for the psychological challenges of travel, while protecting vulnerable travelers and those with pre-existing conditions.
  • Strengthen your institution’s compliance & meet new expectations so you can navigate federal guidance, Title IX updates, and third-party vendor oversight to ensure your programs are compliant, well-documented, and defensible.
  • Craft emergency response plans that account for today’s evolving geopolitical instability, climate-related disruptions, and high-risk regions.
  • Equip faculty and students with the knowledge and protocols needed to act swiftly in crisis, from sudden visa cancellations to injury or death abroad.
  • Establish a tiered risk management approach for your travel programs and build responsive, adaptive policies that evolve as global conditions shift.
  • Enhance Global Partnerships through collaboration with overseas partners who share your commitment to academic excellence, inclusivity, and student safety — even in high-risk environments.
