Supporting organisations to make safer, smarter decisions in complex operating environments.

​When lives depend not only on awareness, but on leadership and decision-making,  preparation matters.

​​

Choosing a provider for Security, Risk & Crisis Management or Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT) is not simply a matter of cost or course length. It is a decision that directly affects staff safety, operational continuity, and organisational responsibility.

While many providers offer theoretical frameworks, far fewer deliver training led by professionals who have personally carried responsibility for security decisions, crisis response, and staff welfare in hostile, conflict, and post-conflict environments.

Real capability is built when individuals are prepared not only to manage their own safety, but also to support teams and contribute to leadership when conditions deteriorate. These skills cannot be developed through theory alone — they require practical application, structured discussion, and guidance from experienced practitioners.

Experience that matters

Peritus Global Training delivers practitioner-led training grounded in recent frontline experience across complex operating environments, including active conflict, post-conflict stabilisation, and large-scale humanitarian response operations”

Our instructors have held senior roles such as Global Head of Safety & Security, Regional Security Manager, and Country Security Manager, with direct responsibility for protecting staff, managing crises, and sustaining operations in volatile environments. They understand not only risk — but responsibility and consequence.

Training is delivered in a calm, professional, non-ego-driven manner, with a clear focus on judgement, proportionate response, and defensible decision-making. We avoid outdated or theatrical scenarios and instead deliver realistic training that directly supports safer, more effective operations.

Training that prepares people — not just policies.

​

What our training delivers

Our courses build individual capability and organisational resilience, helping organisations reduce exposure to avoidable risk, strengthen operational effectiveness, and meet duty-of-care obligations — without compromising delivery.

The skills developed are grounded in real operational experience and are applicable across humanitarian, security, and related operational sectors.

Participants develop the ability to:

• Identify threats and vulnerabilities early

• Conduct dynamic, context-specific risk assessments

• Make informed, responsible decisions under pressure

A strong security culture directly influences organisational reputation and the ability to recruit and retain staff. In a sector where recruitment is time-intensive and costly, organisations that fail to demonstrate a genuine commitment to safety and duty of care risk increased turnover and reputational harm.
