CARM^® Robbery Safety Training

If your staff are likely to be exposed to the risk of robbery you will want to ensure that they know and understand how to think and behave in a way that will ensure their safety and the safety of your customers.

To be sure, you may not be able to prevent armed thugs from getting away with your cash or valuables, but CARM ^® Training's robbery program will drastically reduce the consequences of a robbery or the chances of a robbery turning into a homicide or, for that matter, a lawsuit against you for not adequately training your staff.

Don’t let a drama turn into a crisis. CARM ^® Training’s Robbery Safety course is a competency based and assessed training program designed specifically for staff who may be exposed to the risk of robbery in the course of their employment.

In this remarkable, yet short, 4.5 hour program, staff learn how to utilize a proven and effective response model, encompassing both behavioural and cognitive responses of staff, which can be applied to enhance personal safety during a robbery in the workplace.

In short, everyone will know the best course of action aimed at coming out the other side of the ordeal unscathed.
