ABCP supported Courses and Training

ABCP is pleased to be working with a number of training organisations to offer courses and training to business crime partnership managers, their staff, police officers, PCSOs, security officers and business members. This will help them to acquire additional skills and knowledge and help to raise standards.

BCRPs are an important part of local community safety, and government policy in regard to the Big Society places great emphasis on self help. ABCP wants to ensure that business crime partnership management is seen as a professional and valued contributor to this agenda.

Shown below are details of two providers who can offer both comprehensive academic courses in crime partnership management as well as shorter, vocational training.

If you are interested in furthering your knowledge in any way, please contact one of the providers for more information.

Town Team pilot bids launched
The Department of Communities and Local Government is looking to support twelve pilots with funding of up to £100,000 for each, depending on the amount sought by and their assessment of individual bids. They will be awarded to partnerships in England that demonstrate the best fit with the selection criteria. This will be paid through s31 un-ring-fenced revenue grant, paid directly to the relevant local authority.

The broad wording would encompass both those providing vital services to the public, such as emergency services personnel, but also those working, for example, as pub staff and shop workers. More...
