Claire Humble is launching a disruptive security training and transformation business, Nuology, which is set to improve safety, security, and wellbeing standards across the sector. The business will reportedly help universities dramatically improve the student experience with real terms impact on reputation, rankings, recruitment, and retention.

From the Healthcheck package, eLearning (introductory level already available) and in-person immersive training, to coaching, mentoring and strategic transformational consultancy, Claire and her new colleagues support the entire journey.

She said, “I’m passionate about reimagining safety, security and wellbeing within our industry because, frankly, we can do better. The UK lags behind other leading educational destinations in student perceptions of safety, and miles behind the leader, Canada – we’re coming for them.”

Claire will also be transforming attitudes to Equality Diversity Inclusion (EDI) and high-performance culture. “I’ve always tackled challenges head on. And this is the biggest of my career,” she continued. “There are many places where outdated attitudes towards safety and security provision are holding back the entire institution, damaging reputation through poor experience.

“In fact, students and campus users care a great deal about how safe and well they feel. And the UK as a whole is behind. Inertia is decline in our now global market. Whereas those who change successfully have a clear competitive advantage.”

Claire and her team’s eLearning packages have already been picked up by a number of leading universities including Heriot-Watt and York and have recently struck up a partnership with the International Foundation Protection Officers (IFPO UK&I) to supply their members.
