The IAPPA was created to establish uniform standards for Close
Protection Agents. Even today, training in personal protection
is considered the supreme discipline in the security industry.
The quality of the training ranges from very good to
unbelievably bad worldwide. Many contents in so-called
academies do not correspond to reality and often serve as
advertising measures and adventure vacations so that the often
completely exaggerated training fees are justified. Very often
this has little to do with personal protection, because the
reality often looks different than it is suggested to the
participants.
The certified and accredited training centers of our members
and partners train according to the internationally valid
standards for personal- and escort protection, which have been
in force since 1989 and are constantly being modified. We adapt
to the changes in the world, because standing still means
falling behind.
Today, more than 30 years after our foundation, we offer a wide
range of education, training and education for security forces
worldwide. Our members are experts in what they do and use
their knowledge to ensure high quality training.
If you are looking for a certified academy or a certified
instructor, please contact our office and we will put you in
touch with a suitable contact. If you run an academy or are a
trainer yourself, we would be pleased about your interest in a
membership.
In our online Academy you will find a variety of interesting training courses that can help you advance professionally and provide you with knowledge, because only in this way you can always do a good job.
Corporate Security is an important part of businesses today. In addition to the criminal aspects in corporate security, business continuity and crisis and emergency management also play a crucial role. In the context of globalization, the requirements for travel security, for example, and the protection of foreign company headquarters must also be constantly updated and modified.
Corporate security officers are expected not only to be able to
work under pressure, be critical, assertive and proactive, but
also to have a high level of knowledge, expertise and
leadership experience.
The CCSeM® certification takes place exclusively at IAPPA and is internationally unique. Appointments are available at selected locations with IAPPA certified instructors.
