To further enhance training provision, Skills for Security have accredited programmes that have been developed by other organisations but have met our quality standards and can therefore display the 'Skills for Security approved' logo. The following organisation offers a Counter Terrorism Awareness Trainer Programme that has been accredited by Skills for Security.

This programme, delivered in conjunction with Rutherford, has been created for Level 3 or above qualified trainers who wish to be able to deliver Rutherford's Counter Terrorism Awareness 1 day course.

What does the programme cover?

The programme consists of two key phases:

1. Distance learning phase, where trainers are sent a log-on to the on-line programme  which will take between 10-14 hours to complete and covers:

• The definition of the term 'Terrorism' and 'Terrorist'
• The history of terrorism and its affects
• What is an Improvised Explosive Device
• The different types of explosive devices and methods that terrorists employ
• Counter terror organisations
• Contingency and emergency planning
• Threat assessment and management
• Risk reduction measures to reduce the threat faced
• The importance of incident management planning
• Post attack or incident considerations
• Security planning

Trainers will be also be issued with website links, a Tutor handbook and PowerPoint slides to help build as great a knowledge as possible on the subject matter prior to attending the classroom based element. 

2. Two day teaching workshop to develop the trainer's knowledge of the subject material and delivery of the key learning techniques.  This includes:

• Assessment techniques
• Core Learning activities
• Micro teach sessions - 2 teaching sessions each day

What are the benefits of this programme?

Trainers will develop their understanding of the subject material ready to deliver their own programmes.  After successful completion of the programme trainers will be able to deliver both a 6 hour counter terrorism awareness programme and a 2 hour programme designed to support the new door supervisor training, in accordance with the licensing agreement.  In addition, a BTEC Level 2 award in Counter Terrorism Awareness can be delivered by accredited trainers.

Accredited trainers will be required to attend a 1 day re-certification programme every 2 years to ensure their knowledge is current.

If you have joined the Security Institute Continuing Professional Development scheme, successful completion of this course will give you 21 points towards your structured CPD. For more information about the scheme, which is open to members and non-members, please click here.
