Course Overview

The value of preparation for power station security is only visible on the day it is needed. Most security failures involving the practice within corporate security practice exploit a process gap rather than a technical one. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about this aspect of corporate security practice in their own setting. The programme suits teams tackling power station security together as readily as individuals attending alone. It concentrates on the parts of the corporate security practice capability that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting this part of corporate security practice, ready to be adapted internally. A common pattern is strong design of power station security paired with weak follow-through. Practitioner evidence points the same way: this aspect of corporate security practice improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this strand of corporate security practice survives a hostile question.
