Ted Czech, social media manager for the International Foundation for Protection Officers, was a guest recently on Security Guy TV, a podcast hosted by Chuck Harold.
Czech and Harold covered some of the professional certifications the IFPO offers, how it is critical as a security professional to constantly update your skill set with continuing education and the changing landscape of the security industry.
Czech mentioned that now more than ever, the role of security officers has transitioned from simply "observe and report" to taking on some of the tasks previously thought reserved only for law enforcement.
