Course Overview
A control on road and rail transport security that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. Security arrangements around transport security are tested by adversaries, not by auditors. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from the corporate security practice discipline, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Participants finish able to explain road and rail transport security to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Across sectors, teams that rehearse this aspect of corporate security practice outperform teams that only plan it. The course sets out a working method for transport security that participants can apply the week they return. Buying a tool rarely fixes road and rail transport security; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for transport security. The programme closes with an action plan for the practice within corporate security practice that each participant writes for their own organisation.
