Perpetuity, a provider of security management training in the UK, is offering security professionals the opportunity to achieve an MSc in International Security and Risk Management.
Twelve-month eLearning programme
The unique MSc programme has been developed in collaboration with the University of South Wales (USW) and can be completed via eLearning within twelve months.
“We are proud to be the first training provider within the security sector to be authorised to assist security professionals in achieving the highest level of security management training and accreditation available,” said Ken Livingstone MSc, Director of Perpetuity Training Academy. “The programme has been written by security experts, and combines theoretical knowledge with vocational best practice in order to produce a Master’s Degree that focuses on professional issues and advancement.”
Virtual learning system
Learners will be supported by course tutors from both Perpetuity and USW, whilst an innovative aspect of the programme will enable participants to interact with others through a specially designed virtual learning system, which includes forums and discussion groups.
"The programme exposes students to many of the theoretical, political, and practical issues faced by the modern security and risk mitigation sector" |
The collaboration between Perpetuity and USW follows the successful project to embed the Security Institute’ level 5 diploma delivered by Perpetuity, into the University’s BSc Risk Management, Security Operations, and Investigations course.
Exposure to various security issues
“We have established a good working relationship and a shared vision about developing the professional agenda,” said Brian Blakemore, Associate Head of the School of Health, Sport, and Professional Practice which includes Policing and Security, at the University of South Wales.
“The MSc in International Security and Risk Management delivered by Perpetuity and accredited by USW, offers students the opportunity to engage in an intellectually challenging course, developing their potential to advance in a growing and vibrant sector. The programme exposes them to many of the theoretical, political, and practical issues faced by the modern security and risk mitigation sector.”
Access to USW library
Whilst participating in the MSc programme, learners will be enrolled as students of USW and will have full online access to the University library. Successful graduates will be invited to receive their award at a University of South Wales graduation ceremony. The inaugural intake for this programme commences February 2017.
