Design and Manage Emergency Exercises in Aquatic Facilities

This program is designed for organisations seeking to move beyond basic compliance and develop high-quality emergency exercise and simulation capability within aquatic facilities. Drawing on expert experience in emergency management, incident investigation, and operational audits, the program focuses on how leading organisations design, deliver, and evaluate realistic scenarios that genuinely test systems, people, and processes.

Participants will explore how to develop structured exercise programs that reflect real risks within aquatic environments, including low-frequency, high-consequence events. Through the use of real incident case studies, post-incident reviews, and operational insights, the program demonstrates how simulations can uncover system weaknesses, validate procedures, and strengthen decision-making under pressure.

A key focus of the program is the development of Lessons Learnt frameworks, ensuring that outcomes from exercises and real incidents are captured, analysed, and translated into meaningful system improvements. Participants will apply their learning by designing and facilitating simulation scenarios, evaluating performance, and developing practical recommendations that enhance emergency preparedness and organisational resilience.
