Our operational front-line personnel have completed the Security Industry Authority (SIA) Action Counters Terrorism (ACT) Security e-learning for Security Professionals.

The new training developed by the SIA in partnership with the National Counter Terrorism Security Office and the Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure is specialised training for front-line security operatives. The custom-built training provides up-to-date counter-terrorism knowledge to help operatives prepare for and respond to terrorist incidents whilst on duty.

The new ACT Security e-learning course follows a successful pilot in August 2021 which included security providers and operatives and provides additional reassurance to our clients that our operational security personnel are confident in the identification, deterrence and disruption of potential terrorist activity.

Paul Fullwood, Director of Inspections and Enforcement, SIA said “The security industry plays a vital role in public protection. We’ve been working closely with counter-terrorism experts within the National Counter Terrorism Security Office and the Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure to develop specialised e-learning for the security industry. ACT Security will provide operatives with greater knowledge and confidence to detect, deter, or disrupt potential terrorist activity. We urge all security operatives to take this free specialised training to enhance their skills to combat the threat of terrorism”.

When taken with the ACT Awareness e-learning which Bradburys personnel completed in December 2019, the new training covers the entire counter-terrorism content for the licence-linked qualifications and top-up training.
