A risk assessment is **the process of identifying what hazards currently exist or may occur during Erasmus+ and Turing Scheme trips**. A risk assessment defines which workplace hazards may be likely to cause harm to students.

## Carrying Out the Risk Assessment for Erasmus+ and Turing Scheme

All students planning to travel to a host country are required to carry out an independent risk assessment **for Erasmus+ and Turing Scheme trips** before travel using a pre-departure 'Declaration of Risk' form. This is in line with what was previously provided by the UK National Agency under Erasmus+. Funding will now also cover preparatory visits to carry out risk assessments and ensure participants can access and take part in all elements of their placement.

## The Turing Scheme Funding

The Turing Scheme will fund up to 100% of the costs for support directly related to the students’ additional needs. This funding will also cover preparatory visits by the sending organisation to carry out risk assessments and ensure participants will be able to equally access and take part in all elements of their placement. Pre-visits can be for a maximum duration of three days, and funding can be used for both learners and accompanying staff.
