Overview

What is This Course About?

The Online Security Management Course examines in depth the security field as well as the broad areas of security management. It tackles such matters as the role of security managers, different security threats and systems, and the legal aspects of security management. It also identifies different criminal threats, defining what they are and how they can affect an organisation and its employees. The course also highlights various strategies for planning and managing a security program, identifying and managing risks, responding to crisis, and leadership in the face of a security threat.

Organisations, regardless of the size and nature, are vulnerable to different kinds of threats both from the inside and outside. This calls for the development and application of appropriate security measures and ensuring they are properly managed to maintain their efficacy and relevance. With the lessons covered in this course, students will get to know different aspects of security management and realise it as a vital and integral component of organisations. Such understanding will aid them in knowing how to develop and implement security policies and measures that will protect organisations against a variety of risks and threats.

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.
