The Association of University Chief Security Officers (AUCSO) has announced plans to increase its global reach, and to expand its range of services and benefits for members. The association, whose membership already includes security staff at 228 higher education institutions worldwide, is targeting significant expansion in the Americas, the Middle East, and South East Asia.
The development plans were confirmed as Les Allan takes over as the new Chairman, and Ollie Curran becomes Vice-Chairman. The newly appointed leadership team say they want to facilitate more sharing of best practice internationally to help drive up standards of safety, security and protection for students, academics, and staff, including those on placement or travelling overseas.
