“The International Foundation for Protection Officers is committed to the support and professional development of protection officers and supervisors. Through advocacy, promoting training standards, and providing accessible training, education and certification opportunities, we seek to enhance their professional standing as well as increase and diversify the value of the vital services they provide.”

Introducing the IFPO powered by Nuology eLearning platform:
This platform has been designed by UK security professionals to provide, engaging, interactive, CPD accredited education programs. Easy-to-access on any platform, our programs will support the learning and career development of frontline security professionals and increase their security skills and knowledge.
IFPO Security Training and Educational Programs
The International Foundation for Protection Officers (IFPO) is dedicated to providing meaningful, cost effective education for all levels of security personnel. Educational institutions as well as individuals have found the IFPO Programs to be a valuable professional development tool.
We believe that education is an essential part of professional development for those charged with protecting others: The Foundation serves individuals, security service firms, and organizations that have their own security staff. Career orientated officers as well as individuals benefit from the recognition and professional standing that the Foundation certification conveys.
IFPO membership is available for both individuals, employers and educational institutions. We offer a “Members Only” area on this web site with extensive information on key aspects of security training and related topics.
Our security training programs are designed to work on their own or as part of an existing curriculum. Frequently, institutions of higher learning will include our programs in their courses of study.
