PASADENA, CA — SafeAbroad, a leading provider of safety and risk assessment solutions in international education, will lead a training session on “Practical Risk Management for Smaller International Education Offices” at the NAFSA Region XII Conference in Pasadena on October 30, 2025. The presentation dives into tailored risk management strategies for small international education offices, addressing cost-effective solutions and collaborative approaches to enhance the safety of study abroad programs.
As international engagement grows among colleges and universities, smaller institutions encounter unique challenges in ensuring the safety and security of their students and faculty abroad. Attendees will gain practical knowledge in monitoring global developments, supporting travelers during emergencies, and creating right-sized policies that enhance safety while meeting institutional needs.
“Ultimately, international education is about giving students life-changing experiences,” said Zac Einerson, Client Engagement Lead at SafeAbroad. “Our role is to make sure safety concerns don’t stand in the way of those opportunities. With the right policies and risk management systems in place, institutions can focus on supporting their students while knowing they’re prepared for emergencies.”
