ARC’s Biggest Course is Underway


Security managers from a wide range of industries have joined together to attend the Security Management Stage 2 course currently being held in Goring-on-Thames in the United Kingdom. These 30 security professionals make up the biggest course of any kind that ARC Training has run to date.

This number of delegates brings both advantages (a wide range of experience and knowledge) and challenges (how do you get 30 security managers in one room to watch Brazil vs. Chile World Cup football after work?).

With representatives from a wide range of industries, government bodies and NGO’s coming from countries as far apart as Brazil and Pakistan, this group presents superb opportunities for interchange of ideas and opinions and, ultimately, a great learning opportunity. Amongst the languages on the course are: Portuguese; German; Arabic; Ibo; Swahili; Russian; Kazakh; Polish; Hausa; English; Dutch; French; Urdu; Kalabari; Afrikaans and Shona. And yet, everyone shares the same goals – to improve their professional security skills. The course is being led by Barry Vincent MA, MSC and Peter Horsburgh CPP, PSP
