Subject. The article analyzes principal risks and threats in education. We substantiate scientifically that education is one of the key elements in economic security of the State since higher schools train highly qualified professionals for crucial sectors of the market. Objectives. We identify principal groups of risks associated with educational activities of higher schools and figure out whether they develop and implement risk management systems. Methods. The research draws upon methods of factual data observation and collection, historical and logic methods, analysis, synthesis, etc. Results. We examine key approaches to risk classification in education. The article also analyzes risk factors and identifies critical risks associated with educational activities of higher schools. Conclusions and Relevance. We outlined the risk map by negative consequence and probability of a risk. Using the risk map, we detect five groups of the most critical risks, i.e. rapidly outdated knowledge risk, budgetary finance risk, professional personnel risk, risk of educational program inconsistency with the labor market and risk of universities' competitiveness in the global market

Developing countries face various challenges in implementing bio-risk management systems in the laboratory. In addition, educational settings are considered as workplaces with biohazard risks. Every activity in a laboratory facility carries many potential hazards that can impact human health and the environment and may cause laboratory incidents, including Laboratory Acquired Infections (LAIs). In an effort to minimize the impact and occurrence of these incidents, it is necessary to evaluate the implementation of a bio-risk management system in every activity that involves handling biological agents. This study was conducted in an Indonesian higher-education institution, herein coded as University Y. This is a descriptive, semi-quantitative study aimed at analysing and evaluating the implementation of the bio-risk management systems used in laboratories by analysing the achievements obtained by each laboratory. The study used primary data that were collected using a checklist which referred to ISO 35001: 2019 on Laboratory Bio-risk Management. The checklist consisted of 202 items forming seven main elements. In addition, secondary data obtained from literature and document review were also used. The results show that out of 11 laboratories examined, only 2 laboratories met 50% of the requirements, which were Laboratory A and B, achieving good performance. Regarding the clauses of standards, a gap analysis identified leadership, performance evaluation, and support as elements with the lowest achievement. Therefore, corrective action should be developed by enhancing the commitment from management as well as improving documentation, policy, education and training.

Many countries have promoted the multilateral commerce in the global market according to the WTO/TBT (Agreement of Technical Barrier to Trade). One of the most important factors to implement this agreement is that the trade goods should be evaluated once in the export or import country. Therefore the test laboratories for product assessment should construct the new management systems to get the same results of tests anywhere in the world. Even the research laboratories are in the same situation as well as the test laboratories because they must compare their data with others for joint study. They should be encouraged to apply the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 to their systems.
