Bite Size courses

by Mark Rowe

Tavcom has launched its Bite Size Training. Developed for installers and system integrators, as well as operators, security personnel and specifiers, Bite Size Training provides the opportunity for security industry people to fill in gaps in their knowledge without having to spend hours researching on the internet.

The Hampshire-based provider of classroom based BTEC certificated courses, Tavcom has been arranging online long distance training which offer a way for students working within the electronic security industry, to acquire new skills; at their own pace and in their own time.

Paul Tennent, pictured, Managing Director of Tavcom, said: “Our online courses which can result in career enhancing qualifications have proved to be incredibly popular. However, we offering something distinctly different with our Bite Size Training, the objective of which is to provide Knowledge Modules that address individual key issues. Priced from just £9.95 plus VAT, each bite size module is totally focussed on a specific topical subject and, in an extremely easy to complete format, can fill what may be an important gap in a person’s knowledge. Participants will find that there is no heavy reading, but all they need to know is readily available.”

To assist learning, students are presented throughout each module with self-assessment questions and by clicking on highlighted key words they can view details about aspects of the module’s subject matter. There are ten Knowledge Modules to choose from, but according to Paul a development programme is in place that will see the list being continually expanded during 2014 and beyond. “Each module will be produced with the assistance of our expert team of independent tutors and consultants, and as you would expect from Tavcom, each will meet the same exacting high standards of education that we have achieved worldwide with our accredited vocational training courses.”

Details of the Knowledge Modules available can be found on the Tavcom website. When completed, each module offers two CPD (Continuing Professional Development) points and they cover a range of subjects, including the essential information needed to reliably gather video evidence, a technical guide to fibre optics, Intrusion Detection Devices, EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) and video analytics.
