Terra Dotta's Educational Software RiskInfoSys Keeps Study Abroad Participants Safer

Terra Dotta, a Chapel-Hill based educational software developer, is proud to announce that its groundbreaking software RiskInfoSys has been adopted by some of the country's most respected educational organizations for use in travel risk management.

    CHAPEL HILL, NC, April 29, 2010 /University PR News/ -- Terra Dotta, a Chapel-Hill based educational software developer, is proud to announce that its groundbreaking software RiskInfoSys has been adopted by some of the country's most respected educational organizations. Recently, New York University, which sponsors approximately 4,000 abroad participants annually, purchased RiskInfoSys exclusively for its travel risk management capabilities.

Travel risk management is crucial to educational institutions, which send students and faculty abroad for long term study programs and shorter term conferences, research projects and speaking engagements. Prior to Terra Dotta releasing RiskInfoSys, there was no singular, central software program to easily track the location of an institution's international travelers.

Because RiskInfoSys software is so unique in its functionalities, it has become the must-have software for travel risk management to inform the institution's travelers and quickly locate and communicate with them in an emergency. The success of the product has resulted in several new partnerships with emergency evacuation companies and health insurers.

"We're very proud of what our software, which is unlike anything else on the market, can do," says Brandon Lee, CEO and co-founder of Terra Dotta. "Educational institutions need to be able to locate their abroad participants in the event of a natural disaster or political emergency. As much as we hope those things don't happen, we know they can and do." Lee continues, "Our software helps mitigate travel risk and truly offers abroad participants and their loved ones back home peace of mind, which is why I believe RiskInfoSys has been such a success."

Terra Dotta, founded in 2001, is headquartered in Chapel Hill, NC. Terra Dotta is the creator of StudioAbroad software -- the premier enrollment management software for managing study abroad offices, i3s software -- for managing International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) offices and RiskInfoSys - designed for travel risk management.
