Before venturing into remote environments for work or research, whether it’s a day trip or an extended expedition, comprehensive preparation is essential. This MicroCourse dives into the foundational elements of safe fieldwork planning, equipping you with the strategies, documentation practices, and data-processing techniques necessary to ensure a productive and secure experience. But beyond methodological rigor, a critical component is often overlooked: planning for your safe and healthy return.

This MicroCourse provides essential insights into safety protocols, risk assessment techniques, and actionable strategies to enhance your confidence and readiness, allowing you to focus fully on your research goals while staying safe. Split into two interactive sessions, the course includes a brief homework assignment for students to complete in their local area, reinforcing practical knowledge and preparation skills.

Field Safety—Preparation lays the groundwork for safe, efficient research excursions. For more advanced skills, consider taking the follow-up course, Field Safety—Survival & Medical Emergency Self-Treatment, which builds on this foundational training.

Format: 2 x 2-hour sessions with a practical assignment in between.
