When I started my company "VIP" in the security industry back in 1989, I was met by an entirely different profession than that of today. There was no training, no regulations and no licensing, simply no professionalism for the front line security personnel.When employed by various venues in London I saw the need for quality personnel. I knew the security industry needed to raise its standards and public perception. The image of the security sector had to be changed and improved dramatically.Thankfully but some years later the 2001 security act was introduced and the security Industry Authority was to be born, controlling the licensing of ALL security personnel working in the industry and the operators who ran those companies changing the face & image of the British security Industry of today. From the door supervisor role I took on various roles from static guarding, mobile security and then took on further training, which lead into providing security for sports & music events gaining fast experience in event planning and operations, after obtaining further qualification I personally branched out into the close protection field, eventually offering my clients tailor made protection for them and their family offering the complete VIP security protection package.VIP security & Training Services Ltd celebrates its 21st Birthday in 2010.http://www.vipsecurityservices.co.uk/about_vip.php
