College partnership trains women for security careers
In order to encourage and provide opportunities for women starting careers in security, U.K.-based security specialist GMS Group has partnered with education and employment organizations to tackle an industry-wide shortage of trained female staff.
GMS has begun working with Sandwell College and other key partners to engage with wider audiences over Women In Security, an awareness drive about the opportunities for female staff to follow careers in security gatehouse roles, public facing events and technology-based duties including CCTV monitoring as well as the scope for management development.
