Promote your security training courses with a 3-in-1 approach

February 2017 Editor's Choice, Training & Education

Training is becoming a critical function within the security industry, as can be seen by the efforts of the industry regulator to implement new training standards across the board. Security companies that want to succeed in future need to ensure that their staff, from guards to technicians to assessors and managers, are adequately skilled.

Training is not only something of importance to trainers and learners, but for the future of the industry itself. Not only are updated skills required for efficient client service as well as understanding the latest technologies designed to assist in securing people and assets, large integrators are increasingly retaining the services of smaller specialists to provide rare skills to their clients.

To effectively serve the growing need for training courses in a variety of fields pertinent to the security market, Hi-Tech Security Solutions will launch a dedicated 3 in 1 Training Platform in February 2017. This platform makes use of different media platforms to provide effective, targeted advertising exposure for security training courses.

The 3 in 1 Training Platform will be advertised in the print issues of Hi-Tech Security Solutions, on the Hi-Tech Security Solutions’ website (www.securitysa.com) and in the Training News Briefs to ensure readers know where to go for their training requirements. More specifically:

• Each issue of Hi-Tech Security Solutions will include a training section where companies offering training can advertise their courses.

• All courses listed in the print edition will be listed in the training category of the Hi-Tech Security Solutions’ website.

• A dedicated Training News Brief will be sent out once a month to a mailing list of readers who have requested information on security services, products and related information, including training. This list currently comprises over 2800 readers and is growing steadily.

If you offer training to the security industry, make sure the industry knows who you are and what you offer by taking advantage of the 3 in 1 Training Platform from Hi-Tech Security Solutions.
