Security training Ontario Contact Information : http://www.investigatortraining.ca/ Mailid:- info@investigatortraining.ca, Address:-12 North Front Street, Suite 202, Belleville, Ontario K8P 3A7, Ca In the current training requirements a person who wants to be a security person and obtain a valid license must complete a special training for that. In all the training sessions that security guards go for workplace instructions a familiar question always comes up when a person asks how they do the job of a security guard. Security person needs to observe and report and it is the most common statement in the security industry and yet very few expert and professional trainers include any time in the course to train students in the skills of observation or detection. The tired information regarding offender’s descriptions is trotted out and all the students nod their heads at the valuable skills they are learning.

  2. Observation skills: Today most Security training Ontario courses don't include practical sessions on testing the observation skills of the students by using a role play or imitative incident to put any learning into practice. Working with new security guards become obvious that they do not know how to observe any of the following significant factors. A direction should the security go after the incident? Who was with the offender before or after the incident? Are they right or left handed? Any signs of injuries? So there are many questions like that you have to face as security personnel. The best way to train: In the special force units they teach you some observation skills that are almost essential by the end of your training. This is completed by repeated practical sessions and increased difficulties with tests throughout to meet their standards. Security guards need to have the desired level of training if their job is primarily to observe and report incidents correctly. As a well-established organization, we use similar methods to train security guards and investigators to really be able to see all the evidence at a scene or be able to give a comprehensive witness statement report.

  3. Incident report training: By taking the students through a video of an incident or a role play simulation, they required to observe and report all the details. This is a good way to get them practiced in report writing and observation skills. Crime scene awareness: Security guards and new investigators often get deluged at their first crime scene in regards to what proof and evidence is detected and what reports are important for witness. To reduce the stress and potential mistakes from the effects when collecting details from a crime scene, running a training session that is realistic as possible to induce a level of stress and put their observation skills to the test. All students are required to observe all the required evidence that has been placed in the crime scene. Why these methods work?Students are mainly practiced in different observation exercises throughout the course and tested on the results. This provides discipline in learning how to see details and report them correctly. All security courses should include skill tests as part of the course to train new security guards in how to observe and report details by practice. We at Investigatortraining.ca are specialist in providing realistic security training Ontario courses to help your business manage its risks. Visit our website for additional information.
