In the complex and rapidly evolving threat landscape of today, no campus stands secure in isolation. Success in safeguarding our institutions depends on the strength of our partnerships — internally across departments and externally with community stakeholders, vendors and law enforcement.
In this webinar, Danielle Weddepohl, Director of Public Safety and Emergency Management at George Brown College, will discuss how strategic partnerships can transform fragmented efforts into unified security strategies that protect people, assets, and the institutional mission.
Learning Objectives:
- Analyze the role of security in managing large-scale campus events—such as academic conferences, orientations, and high-profile visits—and apply master scenario planning principles to develop effective security strategies.
- Identify and evaluate access control strategies that effectively balance public accessibility with the protection of restricted campus areas.
- Discuss strategies for building and maintaining effective external partnerships with law enforcement, emergency responders, and private sector partners as well as the value of inter-institutional collaboration and knowledge sharing.
- Learn about the importance of internal partnerships, information sharing and training that lead to a shared approach to institutional safety.
