“The course content was thorough and detailed making it applicable for any security professional. From a security officer perspective being on the ground and having an awareness for safety and risks onsite, to upper management and director level knowing when to conduct audits and ensuring effective governance, I think this course benefits all levels within the Security Industry.
The use of case studies and Andrew's experiences demonstrates how implementing the course content is effective, as well as demonstrating what can go wrong if health and safety isn't applied effectively.
Andrew is also a great host, bringing a sense of humour, expert knowledge and good teaching methods to ensure that we were all learning throughout the course.
I would highly recommend this course to any security professional who is interested in advancing their knowledge of Health and Safety Risk Management.
Thanks again on a personal note for the session, I'll definitely be keeping up with any additions to the platform and other courses that you provide moving forward.” Ryan

“Yet another great course designed and delivered by Andrew Protheroe!
Comprehensive, informative and very much relevant!
Andy's unbound knowledge of the vast subjects of both OH&S and Security shine through over the 3 days, his delivery and teaching style reaches both Military and Civilian mindsets, linking both with "real world" examples.
Andy made a fairly daunting subject just flow, and make sense.” Andrew

“This course is very well suited to security supervisors and managers as it allows for this level of personnel to think critically.
Obtaining this level of knowledge and maintaining it within your workspace ensures for a consistent and/or high level of performance within the workspace.
Ultimately this leads to all security personnel exceeding expectations. This course enables that. Very informative.” Rael

“Thanks for the last two days, a fantastic well thought out and delivered course. As always, you break down the understanding so I could digest , and good interaction with all the students .
Love the way you are constantly giving top tips and checking knowledge retention throughout the day.
I would encourage all security workers to sign up for this course with you and build an understanding of H&S within the security field but with a more of a top to bottom view.
Thanks for a top couple of days , never thought I’d smile so much whilst discussing this topic.” Phil
