Parks and Recreation Risk Management Course

Most risk management training is focused on “buy insurance and avoid risk.” This often leads to missed recreation benefits due to exaggerated liability fears.

The curriculum in this course will provide the education and hands on training necessary for parks and recreation staff to deal with the majority of risk issues that their department might experience.

This is a two day course delivered by Doug Wyseman (bio below) and a BC risk management lawyer.
