NTIPDU Level 4 (320) Pathway to national accreditation for explosive detection dog & handler course
Following on from our 2 highly successful pilot courses, which seen all 5 explosive detection dog and handler teams achieve 100% in their Home Office NCTAS-P accreditations the National Training Inspectorate for Professional Dog Users is proud to announce our new NTIPDU Level 4 (320) Pathway to National Accreditation for Explosive Detection Dog and Handler course.
In March 2021, the UK Home Office Government introduced The National Canine Training and Accreditation Scheme for the Private Security Industry (NCTAS-P). This set out a new standard to bring the private sector in line with the standard used by British Police and the Military. The new course offered by the National Training Inspectorate for Professional Dog Users directly maps across the exact training requirements for a NCTAS-P accredited team giving the handler and dog the best possible opportunity to successfully obtain the Home Office accreditation.
