What should I do now?
Senior Officer, British Army
As a Colonel in British Army, I attended the course myself and have since sent several staff members to attend. The course gives an in-depth understanding of security risk issues and how to tackle them, imparting life-long skills that can be employed in a wide range of situations both inside the forces and in future civilian employment. The quality of the lecturers is excellent, from post-graduate level academics to published authors and top end security professionals. Students quickly improve their verbal presentations, report writing and planning skills through practical exercises under pressure. The SRMC also provides several qualifications recognised in the security sector and helps individuals develop their professional networks. A number of military personnel, as well as Service leavers, found it invaluable. It is an ideal course to access through the ELCAS route.
Managing Director, Knight Associates Ltd.
I can now quite genuinely put my hand on my heart and say with absolute integrity that the course is up there as being one of the best and most rewarding professional courses that I have had the pleasure of attending. The quality of the speakers and instructors that we have worked with was exceptional. Never before have I seen a course gather so many world leaders in their respective fields. Also of exceptional quality were the delegates themselves. Strong personal and professional relationships have been formed, which will only further nourish our networks and capabilities.
Security Consultant, Infinite Security Solution
The course was excellent, challenging and a great confidence builder on the road to becoming a Security & Risk Management Consultant. It helped me understand better and build on processes that I had experienced working in the Military and in the private security industry. The broad spectrum of subjects covered within risk management was an excellent insight into other avenues within the security industry that I had little or no knowledge of. The speakers and lecturers were of an excellent standard and brought a wealth of knowledge and first-hand experience to the varying subjects that were covered. In particular the ‘Crisis and Disaster Management’ day with Professor Edward Borodzicz and ‘Detecting Deception’ were very interesting and informative. On the whole I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wishing to progress in security management or to advance their experience into a qualification.
