"Before the year I was afraid I wouldn't make friends. After 2 days I had more! Everyone is open and inclusive, and the get-to-know-you trips at the beginning made me confident in the others. The days are very educational and varied, and give me insight into all the security professions!"
- Student David Smith
"I've tried a lot of things I never thought I could do. The trip to the USA was interesting, among other things we got to see how different prisons are in Norway and the USA. I've been able to train on the PHS and fire constable requirements, and have gained insight into everyone in the security professions. Recommended!"
