Delivered by trainers with extensive operational security management experience in the Oil and Gas sector, the course examines and develops risk management theory and applies this to the modules delivered. Successful learners will earn an IQ Level 4 Award and completion certificate.

Utilising elements of the ANSI-API STD 780 Security Risk Assessment Methodology and additional resources, the course highlights the spectrum of risk elements that have the potential to impact upon security management operations, experienced by security practitioners in the sector.
