Security Managers - Improving Performance and Value

There is great debate within the security profession at the moment concerning the value of training security managers specifically for their role rather than relying solely upon their past experiences, perhaps as a military or police officer. There is also a case for training business professionals from other disciplines in the skills required to allow them to provide real value to the organisational security effort. There are many routes to take in order to achieve increased performance, not least of these is the ASIS™ CPP™ certification, details of which can be found on the ARC website.

Another source of information, particularly valuable to those managers requiring an introduction to the range of subjects and issues facing modern security organisations, is ARC’s Security Coordination and Management (SCM) course. The programme’s sessions include risk management; physical, IT and information security; terrorism and protection of personnel amongst others and provide an ideal basis for further personal development and the application of subject matter towards your organisation’s security concerns.

The next SCM takes place in the UK from 1-5 September 2008. We can also deliver the course to you at your location if required. Follow this link for more information or contact Janet.
