------------------------------
If it's part of your responsibility to protect people, infrastructure, organisations or investments, you need to understand the threats, then prepare and implement best practice strategies to reduce the risk and counter international and domestic terrorist threats.
For many - including police authorities, close protection operatives, the military, government and private sector bodies - the subject of terrorism is so vast and complex that educational insight is rarely available to the majority.
In these testing times where terrorists have grown their ability to target the military and civilians, and security risks are at their highest, knowledge of this important subject will help prepare any company or organisation to counteract and protect against the variety of threats posed by today's multi-faceted terrorist organisations.

This terrorism studies course fills the knowledge gap, enabling participants and organisations to prepare to meet the challenges and risks of evolving anti-terrorist techniques and counter the terrorist threat.
Knowing how and why terrorists are radicalised and plot against civilians, governments, corporations, commercial operations, transport or IT networks makes an unmistakable difference to a nation’s or organisation's anti terrorist and security strategies. The knowledge you will gain from this unique terrorism course will prove invaluable in countering the ever present threat to security.
The Certificate in Terrorism Studies delivers excellence via globally accessible online e-learning, and can be studied from anywhere - all you need is an internet connection.
Established in September 2006, in partnership with Informa, the Certificate in Terrorism Studies from CSTPV at the University of St Andrews was the first transnational counter terrorism online course to provide individuals, military, and police, as well as public and private sector organisations with an understanding of the latest thinking on terrorism and homeland security.
Today the course is recognised as the world leader and is undertaken by many individuals and organisations as part of their general terrorism awareness training or as part of counter terrorism training.
Successful completion of the course results in the awarded of an internationally recognised certificate from the University of St Andrews.
