Description:

Carried out over three consecutive Wednesdays.

The course will cover all aspects of non-water event safety management such as: 

• Responsibilities of the Organising Authority
• Compiling an event risk assessment & implementing control measures
• Producing an Event Safety Management Plan
• Contingency planning
• Tactical positioning of the safety fleet  

The course has been developed by the RYA based on our experience of hosting numerous World Class Events over a number of years and across a wide range of classes and will provide participants with the tools required to implement the latest procedures and planning necessary to make sure they are running a safe, as well as, successful event.

Whilst primarily focused towards major championships or large open meetings the principles apply equally to local regattas or club racing and will therefore be valuable for the following potential attendees:

Club Sailing Secretaries
Club Safety Officers
Race Officers
Event Safety Officers
Course Safety Leaders

Anyone with an interest in or responsibility for on-water safety management of a racing event
