Description

Everyone knows of someone who has been a victim of crime in South Africa. Whether the victim of a mugging, hijacking, robbery or assault, all crime adversely affects us and our loved ones.

Unfortunately, you will continue to become a statistic of crime until you take personal responsibility for your own safety and security. Relying on others in law enforcement or private security companies is not enough.

We want you to feel EMPOWERED and to learn real strategies to stay safe by the end of this course. Your participation in this course directly benefits Child Surviviors of Crime (CSOC).

This course has been written by a group of experts with 70+ years of combined experience in the security industry. They are Francois Marais, Hayley Makhanya and Howard Griffiths from SSC Training.

In this training we will look at specific risks and threats that we are faced with in the South African context, situational awareness, principles of survival and those principles in action. We will also discuss the criminal cycle and explain how you can avoid becoming a victim. Specific areas of focus will be in Rape avoidance & survival, kidnapping & abduction, as well as Vehicle hijacking avoidance and survival.
