Acts of terrorism are designed to create terror and panic, disrupt security and communication systems, destroy property, and kill or injure innocent people. EssentialSkillz have released a new eLearning course to help companies prepare staff so they understand what to do and how to behave in the event of a terrorist threat or incident.

The course is aimed at staff across all levels in any organisation. "With the current UK International Threat Level set at SEVERE, we all need to be more aware of our surroundings and the potential for an attack", commented Julian Roberts, Managing Director at EssentialSkillz. "In the past few months, we have experienced a significant demand for a course on potential terror incidents. This course provides information on recognising the different types of security threats and how best to manage them, including how to implement the appropriate evacuation process when dealing with a terrorist attack", he added.
