City & Guilds Training, ILM and The Oxford Group are all part of City & Guilds.
Forcefield, formerly The Keyholding Company, is a security company that elevates how physical security gets done. It empowers security leaders to run optimised security plans that balance risk and cost.
Most security estates were not designed. They accumulated, service by service, leaving organisations with fragmented systems and limited visibility.
Forcefield brings every service, site and insight together on one platform, so security leaders can see what is deployed, what it costs and how it is performing, and decide on evidence rather than assumption.
Forcefield delivers services a little differently. Services are delivered through a network of accredited security specialists rather than subcontractors. Every officer is directly employed by an accredited partner, vetted to BS 7858 and paid through PAYE, and partners are held to the standards clients hold Forcefield to. Services include mobile security, guarding, vacant property protection, systems and risk consultancy.
Master Locksmiths Association (MLA) is the largest trade association for the locksmithing industry.
A truly not-for-profit organisation promoting the skill and integrity of its approximately 1,400 members.
The MLA was established over 50 years ago to set and promote standards of conduct, practice and materials within locksmithing.
Recognised as the authoritative body for locksmithing by the police, home office, British Standards Institute (BSI), The Risk Insight, Strategy and Control Authority -RISCAuthority (formally IPCRes) and others, the MLA also has a subsidiary company, Sold Secure, which performs certification of security products via manual attack testing.
MLA member companies, who undergo strict vetting (including criminal record checks, regular inspections to ensure quality etc), are able to provide advice based on knowledge and experience, recommend products that are fit for purpose as well as provide professional installation and maintenance services.
The MLA also provides training from its purpose built training facility based at the company headquarters in Rugby.
