Student Events & Risk Management (SE&RM) Coordinator
Student Events & Risk Management is the independent event and risk management program connected to the insurance policies used by all Recognized Student Organizations at the University of Guelph who do not hold their own independent event insurance policy. The goal of the program is to minimize risks associated with events through policy, process, and education. The process is managed by a committee made up of policyholders and the SE&RM Coordinator and is overseen by two staff supervisors: one from the CSA and one from Student Experience.
The SE&RM Coordinator is the primary administrator of the program. Duties include participating in the SE&RM Committee, coordinating event approval, reviewing policy, acting as a resource person to student organizations, and being available to educate student organizations on SE&RM procedures, policies, and protocols.
Student Events & Risk Management (SE&RM) is a process monitored by student representatives and applied for all activities run by Recognized Student Organizations at the University of Guelph.
This person is on the CSA payroll. The incumbent is accountable to the SE&RM Committee, as well as the Central Student Association and the University of Guelph.
Involvement within the executive or leadership structure of a student club or organization is not recommended while holding this position because it is a conflict of interest. Prioritization and good time-management skills are required to respond to the emerging needs of the SE&RM process and issues as needed.
