I recently completed the Door Supervisor course with Andy. He was professional and made the course fun which enabled me to learn easier and pass. Andy is very knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and a very good teacher, he knows all his stuff and I don't think as a class we could have had a better teacher.

Door supervisor course ran from The Royal Citadel 22nd - 28th of April 2024 by On Hand Security and Training. The course was ran really well and very professional, Andy the course instructor went above and beyond for all the students that attended. There was not one question that went unanswered, thus showing the wealth of knowledge he has in this line of field. First aid, fake IDs, how a Door supervisor operates, self-defence, showing the course all types of equipment from counter fit money to homemade weapons and how things are altered to hide contraband substances was all ‘on hand’ training. Going forward I will be recommending people to attend this course.

Customer Feedback

I am writing to convey my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for the wonderful week-long course that you conducted at the Royal Citadel. The instructor Andrew was really intelligent and had a wealth of experience that we could glean really important information from that would otherwise take us years of practice, trial and error. He was not just a great teacher but also a wonderful human being, a rare stock of man to be found in these times of great change and upheaval of the old order, one among a dying breed of men this great country once produced. His understanding and knowledge of how things actually work in the real world make him a subject matter expert in this field. He only adds value to your organisation and course which makes it worth every penny spent. I consider myself very privileged to have worked under him and learnt from him. The course really opens your eyes to the dangers that exist in the world that you otherwise do not really take into consideration. It raises awareness about how any individual should react in emergency situations and to be prepared to deal with any untoward situation in public spaces. I have personally learnt to not take anyone or anything at face value and of the fact that looks can be deceiving. It is always best to be cautious and this training course is the best way to raise your awareness and be prepared to deal with any problematic situations while dealing with public security. Once again I would like to thank the RACPD Team and Mark for bringing Andrew onboard and making this happen for me. I look forward to taking this valuable experience into the world and putting it to good use in my professional and personal life. Best Regards,
