LATEST: Course Fully Updated For November 2015
After
being bumped in a large crowd you notice that your passport has been
stolen from your bag. What would you, as a new traveler, do in this
situation? Unfortunately, tourists are often very susceptible to dangers
abroad, from theft to large-scale crises. It is crucial that
travelers
be aware of serious circumstances which might arise and cause trouble
for them so that they can remain calm when it is time to take action.
This
course is divided into two parts. First, topics intended to help
prevent
emergencies by ensuring a traveler's personal safety and
security are covered. Second, topics related to handling emergencies
that may actually happen abroad are discussed, including: potential
emergencies you may encounter and assisting
organizations
that can
provide help.
No prior travel knowledge is required!
