Before we agreed to participate in McGregor & Associates’ online risk assessment, I knew we had some strengths and weaknesses in our emergency preparedness. The online survey was straightforward, easily accessible and convenient. The final report quantified our shortcomings and gave us a starting platform to improve our risk management program. We will incorporate the report’s recommendations to be better prepared.

It’s great to work with expertise who really understand the critical issues of managing our inherent risk in recreation and student programming. As a professional who is committed to providing safe programming, it’s essential to know your problem areas and how your program measures up nationally. I want to do everything possible to identify weaknesses and build contrete action plans - and this assessment tool does both!

As Director of Campus Recreation at San Diego State University, it is my pleasure to recommend this on-line risk management assessment tool. Managing the day-to-day operations of a multi-million facility takes skilled professionals who use all the tools available to them. For the Director who wishes to decrease the potential for losses due to negligence, this web-based assessment program brings a fresh perspective to risk management.

Our department found the web based risk assessment a valuable and convenient mechanism for reviewing our risk management policies and procedures. The final report is easy to read and understand including data and graphic representation that clearly identified our strengths and weaknesses and pinpointed areas that needed to be addressed and also provided practical suggestions for implementation.

Risk management can be such an overwhelming area in our business. The tool Ian has developed has comprehensive enough reporting to gather all the required knowledge about where we are at and where we need to go. More importantly though, it provides an excellent prioritization system that will allow us to get started in the most appropriate places.
