Threat and Risk Management

Following on from the incidents as recently as in Paris in November 2015 and in March in Brussels the threat of a terrorist attack is a very real and serious danger. The current threat level is ‘severe’ which indicates the threat to the UK (England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) from international terrorism is severe and that an attack is highly likely. We may all be a potential target for terrorists, from large scale co-ordinated attacks by extremist organisations to hate campaigns waged by individuals.

Qualification Structure

The traditional view of a terror campaign being targeted at government locations has changed, and it is now acknowledged that it is the public which is often the terrorist’s target. In particular, crowded locations, such as public transport, shopping centres, large hotels, music concerts and stadiums or anywhere that large numbers of people gather, have become key targets of choice for these individuals.

So, this course has been specifically created to help meet this need and allow individuals and organisations to better understand their role and what steps they can take in the fight against terror.

It can be tailored to various levels of staff attending from senior management, to security and health & safety professionals & facilities staff, to operational managers, to housekeeping staff and those in restaurants and catering operations.
