The CPO program was
created by the IFPO to provide "current, useful, consolidated security
training that provides vital 'need to know' information for Protection
Officers throughout the Security Industry."
The Certified Protection
Officer (CPO) Final Challenge is an option which, for US$100.00, would
allow you to receive the same designation as an individual who completed
the CPO program under the regular course of study. The CPO Final
Challenge option would reduce the time of study required since the only
required examination involved in this program would be that of the CPO
Final Examination.
The CPO Program Final
Examination consists of 328 true/false and multiple choice questions,
with a four (4) hour time limit. It has a coverage which is highly
extensive - in fact so extensive that I wouldn't recommend taking the
exam until you are fully drilled on the relevant topics.
Many CPO candidates are
experienced professional who have been in the field of security for
years, that they know most of the practical how-tos, and all they need
is to learn the principles, concepts and science that are behind the
essential security techniques. Going through all the reference material
officially listed would be quite overwhelming for these busy
professionals.
ExamFOCUS Study Notes build a solid focus while revisiting key
examination topics. Whether you are just starting to study, cramming at
the last minute, or simply looking to refresh, this could prove to be a
lifesaver!
To succeed in the exam you need to get yourself truly familiar with
the most important information by going through sufficiently focused revision. This is
where we fill the gap - you may think of our product as the unofficial supplement to
the regular training class, or you may view it as a standalone module with a focus on
building up your exam readiness.
As an effective learning
aid implemented in the format of study notes, the ExamFOCUS CPO Study
Notes package is designed to present information in an
easy-to-understand, conversational format. Notes are well-written,
technically accurate
and completely representative of the key information covered by the
exam.
