PROGRAM OBJECTIVE:

Experience indicates that most Facility Protection Systems are poorly designed and easily breached. The integrity of Industrial Security depends on the conceptual design philosophy, including a thorough Requirements Document and a complete Facility Development Plan (FDP) prior to the selection, placement, and utilization of detection equipment. A Threat Assessment must first ask the questions which will later be answered in the Risk Analysis (TARA).  Then the Vulnerability is Assessed to determine the Impact to the organization.

This five day program provides information and techniques for the preliminary planning, design and application of industrial security systems while at the same time informing participants of the strengths and limitations of equipment available. An overview of sensor hardware, applications, operational theory and preliminary design considerations are provided. This program stresses the need for a complete risk analysis, selection of appropriate equipment, competent installation and periodic maintenance of system components. Several industrial monitoring options are discussed, with emphasis on theory that can easily be adapted and applied to most commercial and industrial environments.

Instruction may include practical hands-on demonstrations of devices from various manufacturers discussed in the program. The World Institute does not sell equipment or represent any security equipment manufacturers.

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the "Understanding Security Technologies" program is to train attendees to ensure that they can apply a standard level of adequate and timely Life Safety and Industrial, Security Policies and Procedures within the Security Technologies environment.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:

This forty hour course is structured for Design Engineers, Consultants, Architects, Security & Risk Managers, Electrical Maintenance, Facility and Security personnel responsible for the Design, Application, Installation, Maintenance and Operation of Government, Industrial, Institutional & Corporate Security Components and Systems.

Participants Who Complete This Program Should Be Able To:

• Understand the various concepts of industrial security systems components
• Learn sensor system design considerations and operational theory
• Identify equipment costs and installation and maintenance requirements
• Accept alternative video assessment parameters
• Evaluate various monitoring options which will assist in making reasonable selections of equipment
• Selectively apply some variables of technology to meet user needs

CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS (CEU):

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are nationally recognized units in qualified programs which allow the participant to document all non credited work completed. CEUs may be used as evidence of increased performance capabilities and for job advancement, and are recognized by many professional organizations and companies.

CERTIFIED PROTECTION PROFESSIONAL (CPP) RECERTIFICATION:

Documentation of attendance at these programs may be submitted to the ASIS Professional Certification Board for consideration of recertification credit by qualified Certified Protection Professionals.
