Course description

BankersOnline Guru Barry Thompson, C.R.C.M. performs physical risk assessments to determine what makes financial institutions targets for bank robbery or other criminal mischief! He has performed reviews on financial institutions from Maine to Los Angeles. In this riveting webinar you will gain a working knowledge of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED). This session will offer you a visual review on concepts and procedures that will improve your security. 

Assessing the risks involved with the operation of a financial institution is a major concern of every CEO, operations staff, and security officer. Yet, many people have the belief it won’t happen here, we will show you that it can. Financial institutions often unwittingly make themselves targets for criminals and robbers. In this program we'll use actual pictures showing situations that make financial institutions targets for criminal attacks. Take advantage of mistakes others have made with physical security and avoid them yourself. 

Join security and risk management "guru" Barry Thompson and Arvin Clar CFE, for a look at your financial institution facilities as a criminal would see them, both during operating hours and after hours. You may be surprised at what you see!
