For Universities & Schools

Your duty of care deserves better than a spreadsheet.

Basecamp gives programme leaders the tools to verify participant readiness, manage compliance, and monitor wellbeing — all from one platform, built for the way universities actually work.

Built for your type of programme

Wherever you send participants, Basecamp ensures they arrive prepared.

Field programmes & immersions

Structured pre-departure readiness for semester-abroad, service-learning, and community immersion programmes.

Volunteer & NGO placements

Safeguarding, ethics, and child protection training built in — essential for any programme with vulnerable populations.

Research expeditions

Risk assessment templates, emergency plans, and in-country wellbeing monitoring for small groups in remote locations.

Short-term study tours

Fast-track readiness for shorter programmes, with the same compliance rigour as longer placements.

Why institutions choose Basecamp

Your institution, your brand

Each university gets its own subdomain (e.g. hku.basecampportal.com), logo, primary colour, and email sender. Participants see your brand, not ours.

Complete data isolation

Row-level security at the database layer guarantees your participant data never touches another institution's records. Fully GDPR-ready architecture.

Roles for every stakeholder

Participants, programme leaders, institutional admins, and platform super-admins each see exactly what they need — nothing more.

No IT integration required

Participants log in with a magic link — no password, no SSO integration needed for launch. SAML/SSO can be added later for institutional logins.

Audit-ready compliance records

Every completion, score, and signed declaration is timestamped and exportable. When something goes wrong, the evidence is there.

Scales with your portfolio

Add new programmes and cohorts in minutes. Reuse content templates across programmes or customise per cohort. One platform, unlimited programmes.

From contract to live in days, not months

We handle the setup so your team can focus on the programme.

1

Onboarding call

We configure your institution's space, branding, and first programme template together. Most institutions are live within a week.

2

Content review

We load your existing safeguarding policies, code of conduct, and programme-specific content. Or use our ready-made templates as a starting point.

3

Cohort setup

Upload your participant list. Basecamp sends personalised magic-link invitations automatically. Participants start their readiness journey immediately.

4

Monitor & clear

Track progress in real time. Flag participants who need follow-up. Issue clearance once everyone is ready. Download the full compliance record.
