Private Sector Security

The goal of this course is to train private sector security officers (PSOs) in their role of observing and reporting suspicious activity in accordance with the NSI SAR Functional Standard. PSOs often work in tandem with law enforcement and other public safety officials. The ability of PSOs to properly report suspicious activity can sometimes be an invaluable contribution for public safety officials seeking to search for connections that indicate terrorist or otherwise criminal activity. The first half of the training aims to teach private sector security officers what kinds of suspicious behaviors are associated with pre-incident terrorism activities and how and where to report suspicious activity. The second half of this course presents three scenarios that detail the procedures and expectations of frontline professionals regarding SAR.
