Accommodation Security

Live video training workshop, $135-$185 per person

Learn how to select secure accommodation in higher-risk locations, and how to stay safe while at your accommodation.

What you will learn

In this three-hour workshop, you will learn:

• The factors that make a hotel (or other type of accommodation) secure
• How to determine which type of accommodation is appropriate in different risk environments
• How to assess the security of hotels, apartments and guesthouses
• How to augment the security of hotels, apartments and guesthouses
• How to respond if your hotel is attacked

Training environment

The online workshop will be conducted in two 90-minute sessions. The first session will focus on foundational aspects of the topic. The second session will go a level deeper and include scenario-based exercises, providing participants the opportunity to put their new knowledge into practice.

This workshop will be conducted using Zoom. Not familiar with Zoom? No problems. We'll provide detailed instructions on how to make the best of the session in advance.

The format will be relatively informal. We provide plenty of opportunities for questions and encourage participants to share their knowledge and experience with their peers.

The contents of this workshop are ideal for individuals who routinely travel to higher-risk countries, particularly where there is a threat from armed groups. This may include:

• Frequent travellers
• Journalists
• Security specialists

This workshop is designed for organisations, with class sizes of between 8 to 18 people. For now, we're unable to offer this training to individuals or groups smaller than 8 people.
