Security, Risk and Crisis Management Section One September 2022


Back to Package

Welcome to Section One! 

Each of the assignments must be completed in sequential order. For example, you will not be able to move on to Section One Exercise Two until you have completed Section One Exercise One.

Each discussion exercise requires that you make one post, your answer to the post. You are encouraged to go back and review and/or reply to other student's posts throughout the length of the course but are NOT required to respond back to another student's post. 

You must make a 100% on the quiz to successfully complete it. You will be able to see the questions you answered incorrectly after your first attempt. You can take the quiz as many times as needed to pass.

Make sure you have reviewed the syllabus and downloaded a copy of the course workbook (both located in the HANDOUTS section).

*This week you have an assignment which your instructor must grade first before you can move on to the next assignment, which is the quiz.

Read the following sections from the course workbook:

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

PART ONE – SECURITY

  • Defining the Event’s Security Requirements
  • RFP and Security Company Selection
  • Security Staffing, Scheduling and Security Plans
  • Security Organization Procedure Considerations
  • Security Guidelines
  • Badging and Identification Systems
  • ESCA WIS Badge System
  • Technology Resources for Exhibition and Event Security 

After you have finished your reading, you have two discussion exercises, an assignment which is graded by your instructor, and a short quiz to complete.  Exercise Three will need to be graded prior to you taking the quiz.  The quiz will need to be completed with a 100% score prior to you moving on to Section Two.  

When answering the discussion exercises, use your past experience as well as the knowledge gained from reading the course workbook. Through your answers, your peer’s answers, and the resulting discussion, your instructor will help you to look deeper into the course topics. 

Remember that each discussion exercise requires only one post - your answer to the exercise. You are strongly encouraged to go back and reply to student's post throughout the length of the course - ask a question to a classmate, enhance and provoke additional dialogue.

If at any time you experience technical issues, please contact Jennifer at jpotter@iaee.com.

If so, is there anything you would have done differently?
Section One Exercise Three - Assignment
Graded as Pass/Fail
Graded as Pass/Fail Create a brief and mini SWOT Analysis of your exhibition or event in terms of how prepared you are for an emergency or crisis, for this exercise we will treat them as the same. (For this exercise, you need only list two items in each category.) • Look at your strengths and weaknesses (internally) and then potential (external) threats to your event. • How many of you currently have a crisis management plan in place? • As you do this analysis, this could help with developing some revisions with your current analysis? • If you don't have one in place already, start developing one with this first step.
