Security Supervision and Management
The Theory and Practice of Asset Protection
By- IFPO, International Foundation for Protection Officers, Orlando, FL
The International Foundation for Protection Officers (IFPO) has for many years provided materials to support its certification programs. The current edition of this book is being used as the core text for the Security Supervision and Management Training/Certified in Security Supervision and Management (CSSM) Program at IFPO. The CSSM is unique and was designed in 1988 to meet the needs of the security supervisor or senior protection officer. The book has enjoyed tremendous acceptance and success in the past, but after seven years, it has become dated. The changes, vetted by IFPO, make the third edition more current and relevant. Updates include 14 new chapters, 3 completely revised chapters, "Student Performance Objectives" added to each chapter, and added information on related resources (both print and online).
Audience
International Foundation for Protection Officers (IFPO) for the Certified in Security Supervision and Management (CCSM) candidates; Colleges and universities offering undergraduate or graduate degree programs in Security Management, Administration of Justice, Homeland Security or Emergency Management.
