5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for Security Trainers, June 22, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Security Training (Paperback)
This work takes the reader by the hand and illustrates to them what a successful training program should be. The author presents military training tactics and demonstrates how they apply to corporate security training. This work also includes an in depth analysis of recent events that can be used to train a security staff. I have found this manual to be a great tool,by providing fresh ideas to enhance my training program.
