Make sure your business is prepared - come along to Project ARGUS, an initiative developed by the National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) and delivered by Counter Terrorism Security Advisers (CTSAs) throughout the UK.
This 2.5 hour multimedia terrorist simulation poses questions and dilemmas for participants working in syndicates and aims to raise awareness of the threat from terrorism, providing practical advice on preventing, handling and recovering from an attack.
Project ARGUS is ideal for managers in areas such as facilities, security, reception and those responsible for creating and maintaining response plans.
