Great news from Ron Martin, CPP, Infragard North Louisiana Vice President, Commercial Facilities Sector Chief:

"During the International Organization of Black Security Executives, (IOBSE) I was honored to present to five students the International Foundation for Protection Officers, (IFPO) with a complementary Entry Level Protection Officer (ELPO) course enrollment."

Securing the Best: Raising the Bar with IFPO Certification

"They also received a copy of the 8th Edition of The Professional Protection Officer: Practical Security Strategies and Emerging Trends Manual. This offering will jump start their knowledge into the duties and responsibilities of a Security/Protection Officer. The manual could be used as a reference. Over 100 Colleges and Universities use this manual as required reading and/or reference in their academic programs. We appreciate Ms. Sandi Davies, IFPO Executive Director for her support!"
