    I have been in the security industry for a number of years and have just joined ICA.  I am looking for the best CPTED training / certifications that are available. 

    What CPTED training programs / certifications are out there?

    Hi Brian,

    Nice to meet you. I have registered with ACPI to do a course with Art Hushen. I hear he is one of the best CPTED trainers. He offers training in many places. If you have experience in CPTED already it may be worth looking at ICA's certification program.

    All the best.

    This is who we use in the Ontario Govement (CANADA) for CPTED Basic and Advanced Training.

    http://www.stsdinc.com/index.php?page=training

    Basic Level 1
    This course will provide you with all the theory necessary to implement CPTED in your community, corporation or organization.  It will also include practical exercises, case studies, site plan review, lighting presentation and an opportunity to work in a group setting to practice what is learned throughout the course.   
    The topics covered throughout the course include:

    • A brief overview of crime prevention and the history of CPTED
    • The three fundamentals of CPTED (Natural Surveillance, Natural Access Control and Territoriality)
    • The Three D’s
    • Numerous practical exercises
    • CPTED and the Planning Process

    Advanced Level 2
    This course will examine specific CPTED applications in more depth.  Working in groups, you will be sent out in the field to complete a comprehensive CPTED assessment of both an exterior and interior site and report the findings in a PowerPoint presentation format to the rest of the group. Additionally there will be detailed instruction with respect to:

    • Interior Design
    • ATM & Bank Design & Location
    • Surface and Garage Parking Lot Design
    • School Design
    • Legal/ Liability Implications
    • In-Depth Review of Target Hardening (CCV & Access Control)
