Stratford says that while the course http://www.scitraining.com/Security_Police_Sciences has been updated to include more progressive topics, the educational emphasis continues to remain on learning the core fundamentals involved in a number of important and ever-changing security and policing careers.

“The great thing about this course is that so many people can benefit from it,” said Dr. Claude Major, Director of Education for Stratford Career Institute. “The broad range of material provided could be beneficial to someone interested in starting toward a new career in security, helpful for the local neighborhood watch group, or a nice refresher for current professionals.”
