Purpose of Workshop / Skills Taught / Methodology
The purpose of the DRM workshop is both to develop practical skills for risk management practitioners who are
involved in initiatives across the Disaster Risk Management Cycle (DRMC) spectrum in both Australia, and the Asian-Pacific region.
Effective Disaster Risk Management is taught around four key diagrams, a summary of which is covered in DRM diagram framework link.
This is a practically-based intensive workshop which combines both classroom teaching and, for those seeking advanced standing towards off-campus graduate courses offered by five Australian universities, follow-up assignments.
This is an accredited course, where the workshop plus assignment is recognised as advanced standing towards off-campus postgraduate courses in Development Studies, International Health, and Emergency Management, as offered by five Australian universities. No scholarships are offered.
