As the world becomes smaller and business becomes truly global, overseas travel for employees has become the norm. Despite the apparent ease of international travel in the 21st Century, there remain significant health and safety risks for international travellers. Many organisations leave the preparation, safety and support of travelling staff to chance, yet an employer's duty of care extends worldwide.
Our International Travel Safety e-learning course imparts skills and knowledge that will encourage safe and compliant behaviour among employees. Having your employees take the course also helps to protect your company, as an audit trail is created, demonstrating your commitment to your duty of care towards your travelling staff. It will also increase stakeholder confidence through greater corporate social responsibility while reducing your organisation's exposure to liability.

Pricing & Delivery
For small businesses, or companies needing 50 users or less, credits can be bought to be used on the Planet Wise LMS.
For larger corporations, or businesses with 50 or more users, we can sell various packages for courses including a bespoke LMS hosted by Planet Wise. Within this, we can include any number of policy documents, questionnaires or quizzes, to increase your employee's compliance.
For businesses who already have their own Learning Management System, courses can be bought on a licence basis - unlimited licences are available for all courses.
Each licence allows an administrator within your organisation to keep track of delegates and monitor their progress. At any stage data can be downloaded and manipulated to assess take-up rates, performance levels and any areas that may need addressing via internal communication. Training records can also be exported into your SCORM-compliant LMS giving the company the ability to record and maintain an audit trail or employee knowledge should a potentially litigious situation arise.
