Security

Training

Westminster can provide tailored training courses designed to meet your exact requirements.

Training courses to meet all security requirements

Training provides the foundation to the successful and effective implementation of any procedure and empowers staff with the knowledge, skills and ability to be able to carry out the roles expected of them.

Westminster’s training programmes are developed on a modular framework that targets both the individual and operational needs. A blend of appropriate classroom and extended practical knowledge provides understanding, resulting in skilled and able workforce.

All training is delivered by an industry qualified and internationally experienced team who have spent many years working in diverse operations around the world. Using this experience and first hand familiarity to create environments that deliver realistic and relevant training.

From experience, this approach represents a far more effective way of raising security awareness, rather than simply delivering “generic theories”.

Aviation Training

Delivering Aviation Security Training Courses Worldwide

Westminster can provide tailored training courses that will be designed to meet your exact requirements.

All training delivery follows ICAO, EU & UK Department for Transport practices and as required complies with the UK National Aviation Security Programme. We also ensure all local and national legislation and policies are fully researched and woven into the modules.

With the ability to combine our security and aviation expertise we are able to produce aviation industry recognised training packages that fully support and comply with international requirements.

Courses cater for those with little or no previous experience through to those in management roles or that need refreshing and aligning with new operating procedures and standards.

Tailored courses designed to meet your exact requirements
