The ASIS Physical Security Professional (PSP) certification is specially designed for anybody whose job entails the specification, project management or just the management of physical (electronic) security systems. Examination preparation is through study of a series of set books, usually over a period of several months. The examination itself comprises 120 multiple choice questions, with a pass mark of 80%. Upon passing the examination, the successful candidate is entitled to use the letters PSP after his or her name.
ARC Training has developed a unique preparation programme for the PSP examination, combining both distance learning assignments and intensive classroom study. Presently, Peter Horsburgh CPP PSP is in Lagos, Nigeria, conducting an in-house PSP Examination Review Programme for an oil sector client with 14 hopeful examination candidates in attendance. Next week he returns to the UK to work with a further 18 hopeful candidates attending ARC’s open PSP Review Programme, which is run on behalf of the ASIS UK chapter. If last year's results are anything to go by, all candidates should pass the examination under Peter's expert guidance.
Earlier this year, ARC MD David Cresswell went to Bangladesh to begin the preparation of 14 candidates, members of the embryonic new Dhaka Chapter, for the ASIS CPP examination.
