All the resources you will need for your SAFA course with ILS

Resilience is the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or other sources of significant stress; it’s our ability to ‘bounce back’ in response to challenges and setbacks. It is a vital component of our mental health, and, therefore, of our safety and security. Like building a muscle, increasing resilience takes time and intentionality. Focusing on five core components — connection, wellness, healthy thinking, emotional agility and meaning — this 4-week course will empower participants to withstand, and learn from, difficult and traumatic experiences. 

The programme enhances participants’ capacity to analyse, plan, and prepare for safety and security threats when working abroad. The overarching goal is to increase confidence and enable participants and their organisations to fulfil their mandates more effectively.

An ILS facilitator will accompany the participants through an interactive journey, encountering a range of theoretical and practical challenges along the way. From situational awareness through to aggression, via travel health, accommodation safety, and road traffic accidents - this multimedia workshop is key to promoting a culture of safety and security among travelling staff.

The ability to effectively manage a crisis or a critical incident is central to any organisation’s duty of care. Having the required processes, systems, and people in place is a critical component in any organisation’s safety and security thinking (and beyond!), and a benchmark in establishing responsible employment practices.

The Online Crisis Management Workshop is an interactive, simulation-based learning experience that utilises a range of multimedia formats. Examining the psychological needs and pressures placed upon the crisis managers, those directly affected by the incident(s), their families and other colleagues during times of crisis, the workshop tests systems and reinforces the critical skills required to be a successful crisis management team member.

Each programme is written specifically for the commissioning agency, focussing on their programmes, existing crisis / critical incident management processes, and guidelines. The workshop includes a pre-simulation session to familiarise participants, followed by an intensive simulation on a separate day. The workshop concludes with a Debriefing and After-Action Review on a separate day. This training is for Crisis Managers at all levels, potentially including: Senior Leadership Teams, Human Resource Professionals, Communications Professionals, Crisis Administrators and Security Focal Points.
