Nicola MacdonaldThe Association of Event Venues (AEV) has announced it will be holding a document fraud workshop, delivered by officers from the National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO), to help its members discover and detect fake identity documents.
The workshop, aimed at (but not limited to) security and HR personnel within member organisations, will be held on 28 February at the Business Design Centre (BDC).
The workshop is a result of NaCTSO’s presentation to the AEV Security Working Group in October 2016; a maximum of 20 delegates will be admitted.
Delegates will have the opportunity to examine counterfeit and genuine identity documents, and gain a better understanding of the security features used on different documents.
Rachel Parker, AEV director, commented: “I listened carefully to NaCTSO’s presentation to the Security Working Group last year, summarising the aims and objectives of the full workshop session, and noticed that the whole group was impressed with the clarity and practical focus of NaCTSO’s advice and guidance that will help when recruiting staff.
“We immediately resolved to organise a full two hour workshop for members with NaCTSO’s help, and this has now come to fruition.”
