Personal Security Awarness
Personal Safety Awareness
Crimes are committed regularly, and these unfortunate incidents raise the need for individuals to consider their safety and personal security, when going about their day-to-day business. Weaknesses in security and awareness are huge targets for criminals.
Situational awareness starts by applying a measure of your own personal awareness. Having the ability to perceive, feel and be conscious of your surroundings can ultimately save you from being an easy target. Thinking proactively and assessing your environment, and the people around you, can give you an indication of how hostile an environment can potentially become. By not being aware of your surroundings, you are opening yourself up to potential criminals. Poor personal security and situation awareness can lead to crimes happening before you even realise it.
Personal awareness is not necessarily about teaching you self-defence skills, or Close Protection techniques. ATR have dedicated training courses for those. But we do teach you about how to be mentally aware of your surroundings; who is around you, why are they there, and do you pose an easy target?
With ATR’s specialist training and guidance, we can help encourage ourselves to become less of a target and improve our personal security.
Personal Security Training
ATR can train individuals and organisations in risk awareness and personal security. Our safety training course is designed for private, voluntary and public sector workers, as well as anybody with advanced law enforcement or military training. The skills are transferable to anyone. Our tailored security training courses are designed specifically to meet your individual needs, and can either be delivered at our Centre of Excellence or your place of work.
Our personal safety and security courses are designed to train individuals and teams in safe practices, including:
- Risk awareness
- Risk identification
- Conflict management
- Intervention
- Self-defence preparation
- Physical release
- Escape techniques
Here at ATR, we understand that hiring personal Close Protection Operatives or SIA-licensed bodyguards may not be a viable or ideal solution for everybody. Our physical and personal security training is designed to help you increase your own personal awareness.
If you suspect that you may be at risk, but do not want to go down the route of hiring anybody, ATR can equip you with the necessary techniques to ensure your safety, as well as the protection of others around you. Our training courses can prepare you for a wide range of threats and attacks, as well as how to diffuse and safely handle them.
