Professional development and training - Australian Security Industry Association Ltd (ASIAL)

Professional development and training

Attracting and retaining quality security personnel is a growing challenge for many businesses. With low unemployment rates, the rate of retirement considerably faster than the entry rate into the workforce and a shortage of technical skills, businesses need to ensure staff remain engaged.

Why do people leave?

1. Lack of opportunities/career path
2. Lack of training/personal development
3. Poor leadership
4. Salary/better remuneration
5. Lack of appreciation/feedback
6. Flexibility/work/life balance

Even if you are unable to offer further opportunities within the workplace, all businesses should be able to offer professional development. More about CPD
