Security: Personnel   (0879EN)

Protect your institution's assets, customers and personnel with online training that addresses the security function.

Module Outline

While the mandated Security Officer position doesn't have to be a full-time one, the person filling that position does have to be a professional Security Officer at all times – regardless of how much time that the person can devote to the role. And no one person needs to perform all of the security-related tasks within the institution – the security function actually works best when several skilled people apply their respective knowledge, training and expertise to address security issues. In this module, we will suggest personnel who may logically perform safety and security-related tasks. This module is part of a comprehensive e-learning program addressing the security function.

• Explain why the needs of the institution determine the Security Officer's duties.

• Describe the three most significant problems a Board of Directors must address in dealing with the security function.
