Career Break Travel Safety Course
This travel safety course is presented with interactive scenarios, role-play, lectures and hands-on learning. The instructors have an excellent understanding of travellers and flavour the course with stories and situations they have encountered on their own travels.
With a little basic travel safety tuition, many misfortunes can be avoided.
Participants of the safety course will receive the same level of training given to journalists and professionals working in war zones. Anyone embarking on a career break should think seriously about attending. Very few travellers run in to any trouble but this course can offer the extra peace of mind by preparing travellers for situations that may arise.
