CPTED Course
The CPTED workshop is the first level in a series of two workshops (basic and advanced) being offered in collaboration between BCIT Forensic Science and Technology and Lions Gate Investigations Group (LGIG). Participants will learn how to design and use the environment to control human/criminal behaviour and reduce the fear of crime. Participants will learn crime prevention through natural means and how natural access control and natural surveillance decrease the opportunity for crime.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
> Learn how to read construction blueprints and schematic diagrams; how to communicate with planning, engineering and construction personnel,
> Introduce procedures for making recommendations to municipal, provincial and federal agencies on crime reducing measures,
> Demonstrate the proper design of structures, schools, and neighborhoods to achieve the desired crime reduction objectives,
> Learn how to employ proper design and effective use of the physical environment to achieve a more productive use of space and a reduction in crime.
WHO SHOULD REGISTER?
