TRM Level 4 Graduate

A Global First: Andrew Lowe becomes the World’s First Graduate of the Travel Risk Academy ATHE Level 4 Qualification in Travel Risk Management.

Andrew Lowe of BP becomes the World’s First Graduate of the Travel Risk Academy ATHE Level 4 Qualification in Travel Risk Management. We are proud to announce a major milestone: Andrew Lowe, Travel Risk Manager at BP, has become the first person to achieve the Travel Risk Academy Level 4 Qualification in Travel Risk Management, independently accredited by ATHE. This moment marks a significant step forward for a profession that is rapidly gaining recognition as essential to global business resilience, duty of care and organisational security. A trailblazer for the profession Andrew’s path into Travel Risk Management began within BP’s Global Security Operations Centre (GSOC), where he helped define what TRM should look like for one of the world’s largest energy companies. From mapping global travel risks to creating frameworks and embedding best practice, his work has set a benchmark for modern Travel Risk Management roles. By becoming the world’s first graduate of the Travel Risk Academy ATHE Level 4 qualification, Andrew has demonstrated how structured training and accreditation can elevate both individual capability and organisational confidence. Andrew commented on his learning journey: “This qualification is a milestone in my journey as a travel risk manager, helping to both solidify and expand my knowledge and experience. Certification is especially important at a time when the profession is being increasingly measured against ISO 31030.” He added that the course provided clarity, structure, and challenge: “The self-paced format worked very well around a busy schedule. The tutorials were invaluable for validating and at times challenging my understanding, prompting real self-reflection.” In recognition of his dedication and pioneering achievement, we are delighted to welcome Andrew as a Travel Risk Academy Ambassador. A new era for travel risk professionals With this announcement, Travel Risk Academy is opening enrolment globally for its ATHE Level 4 and Level 5 Qualifications in Travel Risk Management – offering a clear, accredited pathway for those responsible for keeping travellers safe in an increasingly complex world.
