PHS Rewarded for Security Training

PHS Group has been recognised for its outstanding contribution to training at the British Security Industry Association (BSIA) Awards. The Chairman’s award, which showcases industry excellence, was presented to PHS for its contribution towards improving standards of training within the security sector for the benefit of both security companies and their customers.

PHS is the first organisation in the UK to be granted accreditation from Skills for Security for its in-house developed Information Destruction Operations (IDO) training course. Recently, the Group has opened the PHS Academy, a training and development centre in Gloucester which houses the delivery of this course.

The BSIA is the trade association for the private security industry in the UK, representing members who are responsible for more than 70% of UK security products and services. This includes the manufacture, distribution and installation of electronic and physical security equipment, the provision of security guarding and consultancy services.

Chris Lodge, Training and Development Director at PHS Group said: “PHS invests heavily in the training of our team members so to be able to offer an in-house qualification in IDO is fantastic. It’s a real step forward in our training and development evolution and a testament to our passion and dedication for developing our staff.”
