Course Overview
Most security failures involving container and maritime shipping security exploit a process gap rather than a technical one. The value of preparation for shipping security is only visible on the day it is needed. This programme builds the corporate security practice discipline from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with container and maritime shipping security. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better this part of corporate security practice is rarely technical. They acquire practical criteria for judging when shipping security is working and when it is only appearing to. Moving container and maritime shipping security from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Every module pairs a short input on shipping security with structured practice on the participant's own material. The final module sets out how progress on the wider corporate security practice agenda will be evidenced six months later.
