These programmes and other specialist training can be designed to meet your specific requirements.

If your organisation is an airline, is (or seeks to be) a UK 'Listed Agent', employs drivers responsible for 'known cargo', is a 'known consignors' of a Listed Agent, - then specific members of staff must attend one of four Air Cargo Security courses (Levels 1 to 4) depending on their job responsibility. The DfT directs you to look at each job and assess the level of knowledge each staff member needs to apply to their job to achieve effective security. There are four levels, L1, L2, L3, and L4.
