Trails Risk Management Training June 14, 2018
On June 14, 2018, the Ontario Trails Council, in conjunction with the Ontario Heritage Trust and Direct Bearing Risk Management Consultants Inc. is co-hosting an education session on “The Law and Risk Management” at Ontario Heritage Trust, 8 Adelaide Ave. E Toronto.
Who should attend: any manager or person responsible for the safe and responsible operation of recreational trail, lands, parks or conservation areas with trails.
Course Objective: To provide participants with the best possible understanding of liability as it pertains to recreational trails. This course is not intended to substitute or replace formal legal advice, all information is provided for discussion purposes only.
Course Details: This course is delivered as a 1 day, 7-hour module. Using photos and /or video of actual trails we will demonstrate actual trail risks and show how these risks can be managed. Through the use of photos of real signage, we will provide participants with a “hands-on” experience allowing them to clearly differentiate between the good and the bad.
