Overview

This course is based on materials and approaches developed for consultants and managers deploying to insecure environments. The course has been developed by serving and former members of Her Majesties Armed Forces.

Description

This self-study e-learning Executive Programme in Security Risk Management (SRM) is designed for learners who have some experience within a security role whether on home turf or in diverse and hostile environments and want to learn more about managing security for themselves or their client and their co-workers in hostile or insecure environments. While much of the guidance and protocols described in this course are based on the United Nations’ and UNHCR’s security guidelines in particular, the content presented is of a general nature and should be valuable for any Security Risk Manager or Consultant in any insecure or hostile environment. We have a range of security courses available which we think might interest you in addition to our Security Risk Management Course.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
