In order for you to get the best our of the course please register for an account on the CHUBB/Crisis24 Horizon Site as we will be using this throughout the day to gather location information for the risk assessment.

NB *Your travel is higher risk if it:

• is in a country with a status of moderate, high or severe on CHUBB/WorldAware, 
• includes activities that are more likely to result in injury such as construction, isolated fieldwork, challenging features such as the terrain or climate, challenging flora and fauna, surveys or interviewing in difficult circumstances,
• involves travellers who have certain medical conditions or protected characteristics that present a need for additional mitigations to keep them healthy and safe during the trip. 

PLEASE NOTE: There is an £80 cost per delegate for this course. Please send your project code to h&s@nottingham.ac.uk.
