The National
Training Inspectorate for Professional Dog Users was
incorporated as a company on the 23rd October 2002. It was
formed as a result of the work carried out by the founding
directors, who discovered that there are no National
standards in place for dog handlers within the Security
Industry.
The NTIPDU
has been fortunate to have had input from Government
departments in developing the course and standards contained
within.
We have
implemented a set of standards attainable by all, by keeping
costs to a minimum enabling the handler to continue with
training and retain employment concurrently.
Each NTIPDU instructor has undergone a refresher course at one
of our National Training centres and meets with the
criteria laid down, this enhances the training of all new
handlers. Once trained, the NTIPDU handler always has the
support necessary from the Inspectorate itself, the Trainers
and Instructors.
The NTIPDU
has within its resources the ability to provide a ‘pool’
of trained dogs, to its members should their own dog be unable
to continue for any reason, thus enabling the handler to
continue with his/her employment.
