Extremism and Terrorism Awareness Certificate

Extremism and Terrorism Awareness Course

Although the threat from terrorist incidents is relatively low, it is vital that employers, employees and students remain aware of the threat posed by extremist violence. Vigilance underpinned by a working knowledge of violent extremism is the best defence against terrorist-related injuries and fatalities. In this course, you will learn how and why some people come to adopt extremist views, how to identify extremism in others and how some individuals cross the line from fervent beliefs to violence. The course also contains practical advice to follow should your workplace or institution come under threat from terrorism.

You Will Learn:

  • The difference between extremism and terrorism, how the former manifests as the latter and how terrorists carry out their attacks.
  • How individuals come to adopt extremist views, how extremists spread their message and the personal characteristics that make someone particularly vulnerable to radicalization.
  • How to identify the most common signs of extremist views and intent to carry out terrorist activities in an employee or student, and how to use the “Behaviour Barometer” model to assess the situation.
  • What to do if you know or suspect that someone you know has been radicalized, and the next steps to take if you suspect that the situation is escalating.
  • How to use ETHANE and “4 C’s” to respond to a terrorist incident, and how to promote the safety and wellbeing of employees and students.

Benefits Of Taking This Course:

  • You will gain a general insight into terrorism and extremism, which will help you place news and current affairs into context.
  • You will be in a position to advise others in your workplace or institution about the threat of terrorism, and how they can take preventative measures against attacks.
  • If you work as a manager or tutor, this course will help you meet your responsibility to identify extremist views in employees and students.
  • If you work with young people, this course will help you assist those who are vulnerable to radicalisation, which in turn enables you to help safeguard your community.
  • A basic understanding of extremism and terrorism will further your understanding of government policy, essential for those looking to work in the civil service or allied fields.

As a PA of a very fast moving company, having many situations thrown at me day to day, I decided to take the Level 3 Admin & PA Diploma course to ensure I was up to scratch within my job role. Although I knew a lot of what was within the course, there were many topics I hadn’t had to use before but since had to.

I found the course very easy to understand and relate to. It was interesting and factual which is brilliant for anyone that would like to improve their PA skills or for someone starting out as a PA.

I enjoyed the course and feel I have bettered myself and my job role as a PA

I have always had an interest in property and estate management. I was unsure how to get my career started in this field without any experience or qualifications in that area. Also, having three children and a full time job limits my ability to attend to college courses. The online system they have at "New Skills Academy" is so straight forward and easy to use. I'm really enjoying learning and expanding my knowledge at my own pace and in my own time. Getting started was so straightforward, I even read over material during swimming lessons and the school run. I'm already looking for the next course to start!

I passed my admin course. It was very clear, so I found it so easy to understand and take in all the information. Thank you

Janet Nantomah

This course has changed my life. It has opened a lot of door and when I apply for jobs it adds distinction to my CV.

It is easy to take time out after work or on a Sunday and it never gets boring. Your mind is filled with new skills and more information that you would love too use in the real world.

I cannot fault this course. I am now applying for University and completing this course will show how dedicated I am to learning.

Faith Bologun

I've completed the course and have started to prepare myself as a mobile nail technician.

The online course was easy to understand and the videos were a good way to practice step by step.

Many thanks

Having just completed the Dyslexia Diploma in a few days I can honestly say I now have a much better knowledge of the condition and it gave me so much detail and information to learn in order to use in my teaching job. Very clear and easy to follow with great assessments at the end of each module. Also the multiple choice exam covered all of the important points I had learnt. Highly recommend this diploma. The fact I could study this online in my own time was a huge positive. I look forward to further study more diplomas related.
