The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) is pleased to announce “Conducting Security Assessments of Sites and Facilities.”
Security assessments are critical when examining the safety and security features of a site or facility. Such assessments can serve proactively to guide the development of the site plans aimed at improving site safety and security. The assessment may also address the construction and renovation of new or existing facilities.
This course will address the relationship between site placement, facility design, and criminal activity. Through interactive group exercises, quizzes, and a multimedia approach, participants will gain an understanding of multiple proven crime prevention techniques used in these assessments. The course will also provide an overview of the typical processes used in site design/placement, as well as techniques for conducting effective risk assessments, including reporting.
The training will culminate in a practical exercise where participants will work in teams to conduct and report on assessments of a site near the training location.
