31st Annual Security & Risk Management Conference

Your role as security officer does not need to be a full-time job, but it must be a professional one. Security officers need a working knowledge of the laws, regulations and industry standards that give them the duty, authority and responsibility to act. They must also be able to develop policies and procedures to address security concerns and protect employees, customers and others, along with facilities, assets and records.  This conference is designed to develop the skills required to fulfill this role.
