We have worked in partnership with the National Counter-Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) to design this UK-regulated qualification. This qualification supports learners in developing the knowledge and practical capability to strengthen an organisation’s counter-terrorism-specific protective security, risk assessment and preparedness. It is aimed at venues, sites and organisations of all sizes, across all sectors. It may be of particular interest to those who want a better understanding of counter-terrorism in preparation for the implementation of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 (Martyn’s Law).
This is the only qualification endorsed by Counter-Terrorism Policing (CTP) and NaCTSO.
