(24/11/2008)
Following a pilot of the Level 2 Certificate for Security Practitioner, WSG Associates and Shield Guarding Company have agreed a training partnership for the delivery of a range of vocational security qualifications.
The training partnership comes after staff from The Shield Guarding Company participated in this development programme, which consists of work based learning embedded within the Level 2 Certificate for Security Practitioners.
Stuart Galloway, Senior Associate of WSG Associates commented, "The Shield Guarding Company have built their reputation on providing security personnel of the highest calibre. To assist them to achieve this they have been at the forefront on many training and staff development initiatives."
"The Level 2 Security Practitioner course offers Shield Guarding and its staff many benefits. It demonstrates competence to nationally recognised standards, identifies transferable skills of employees and highlights an individual’s potential for future development. It also aids in development of a highly effective and motivated workforce, which is something that every successful security business needs in the present climate."
"With the training partnership in place Shield Guarding are now in a position where they can continue to get the best from their staff and are well placed to meet the evolving needs of the market place.”
Stuart Kedward, Human Resources Director of Shield went on to say, “Staff development is central to our business goals and entering into a partnership for vocational qualifications with WSG helps us achieve these goals. We have big hopes for this partnership over the next couple of years. Despite the present financial downturn Shield Guarding recognise the need to invest in training of our staff.”
