This module is designed to help participants recognize and address the wide range of environmental factors that may pose risks to safety, property, and business continuity. Students will explore how to evaluate and mitigate threats such as natural disasters, climate-related disruptions, and vulnerabilities in urban and structural design.
The course emphasizes proactive assessment and prevention strategies security professionals can apply to enhance preparedness and protect assets in changing environments.
This course will teach the participant to:
- Evaluate environmental risks in different city and neighborhood settings
- Identify site design features that increase or reduce vulnerability
- Recognize who is within their sphere of control during an environmental threat
- Understand the impact of their own influence and response as a security professional
With this knowledge, participants will be able to take a preventive and responsive approach when facing environmental challenges that could disrupt operations or endanger people.
