At Fest Buddies we care and share the values of event organisers and promoters with regards to your safety and security and event staff and festival goers.

 

We recommend that every volunteer with Fest Buddies take this online course and get the certificate. Along with a DBS certificate both hold a value to you as a volunteer and in the wider community. The course will take around an hour to complete. You will learn a few things plus we hope you enjoy it.

​

The ACT Awareness eLearning course will provide nationally recognised corporate CT (Counter Terrorism) guidance to help industry (and employees) better understand, and mitigate against, current terrorist methodology.

​

The course covers;

​

1. Introduction to Terrorism

2. Identifying Security Vulnerabilities

3. How to Identify and Respond to Suspicious Behaviour

4. How to Identify and Deal with a Suspicious Item

5. What to do in the Event of a Bomb Threat

6. How to Respond to a Firearms or Weapons attack

7. A Summary and Supporting Material
