Thank You for Your Outstanding Support Rendered to Me during the Security Surveying Course!

"Thank you for your outstanding support rendered to me during the Security Surveying Course."

A sentiment expressed by one of the eight delegates who participated in the recent Security Surveying and Design Course in Cyprus.

Surveying is a task that almost all security managers are called upon to carry out, but for which few have been formally trained. This Skills for Security-accredited course begins by addressing the security risk and threat analysis process, and explains how to carry out a facility and operational characterization, both essential pre-cursors to undertaking a valid assessment of security measures.

Following a detailed session on security design, the practical phase begins with participants working in syndicates to carry out a survey on a real (working) site. Results are then collated, analysed and written up as a full security survey report, under the close guidance of the tutor. Finally, the groups have to formally present their results, and their report, to a “management team” and respond to questions.

The course is delivered by Peter Horsburgh CPP PSP, who, when not training, is a full-time security surveying consultant on behalf of ARC. Twice a corporate head of security, Peter has surveyed literally hundreds of sites.

This is a very enjoyable, practical and fast-paced course, which will provide you with all the skills and confidence necessary to carry out a full security survey of a large site.

Delegates booked so far represent sectors including financial services and banking, government, retail, manufacturing and property development.
