Day 1 & 2 – Titan Surveillance Training Course Part 2

Welcome back to Titan PI TV with your host Simon Henson, as we continue our exclusive behind-the-scenes journey into Titan’s 5-Day RQF Certified Surveillance Training Course. In Part 2 of this special 2-part episode, we delve deeper into the live-action training conducted on Days 1 and 2, focusing on the various methods and challenges of ‘Foot Surveillance’. Shot on location in the busy streets of Nottingham City Centre, this episode brings you closer to the action as trainees hone their skills in real-world urban environments.

What’s Covered in Part 2?

Following on from Part 1, which introduced trainees to the fundamentals of surveillance, Part 2 takes a more in-depth look at the practical application of these techniques in increasingly complex scenarios. With Nottingham’s bustling city centre as the backdrop, the episode highlights the nuances of foot surveillance in a variety of situations, preparing students for the unpredictable nature of the field.

Highlights of the Episode

Advanced Foot Surveillance Techniques
Trainees are guided through the art of maintaining covert observation while remaining undetected. They learn how to:

• Use natural cover such as crowds, shop windows, and urban structures to their advantage.
• Anticipate a subject’s movements to stay ahead of the game without breaking their cover.
• Manage long-duration foot surveillance, where stamina, discretion, and focus are essential.

Navigating Complex Urban Environments
The real-world setting of Nottingham City Centre provides the perfect challenge for trainees to practise their skills. Trainees encounter:

• Pedestrian-heavy areas: How to maintain line of sight without raising suspicion.
• Department stores and shopping centres: Applying skills from the previous episode to navigate escalators, lifts, and potential security hazards.
• Busy streets with frequent changes of pace: Staying flexible and responsive to unpredictable subject behaviours.

Shadowing and Handovers
One of the most critical aspects of successful surveillance is teamwork. This episode showcases:

• How to conduct seamless handovers between operatives to ensure continuous observation.
• The importance of effective communication, using surveillance terminology and radio protocols to coordinate movements without alerting the subject.

Handling Losses and Reacquisition in Real Time
Foot surveillance is rarely straightforward, and subjects can be lost in crowded or complex environments. Trainees face live scenarios where they:

• Practise the HELP methodology for dealing with losses: Honesty, Early Call, Location, Procedure.
• Learn reacquisition techniques, regaining contact with the subject without compromising the operation.
• Build confidence in handling high-pressure situations while maintaining professionalism.

Learning from Mistakes
Throughout the episode, trainees receive constructive feedback from experienced instructors, highlighting areas for improvement and reinforcing best practices. This collaborative learning approach ensures that each participant develops the skills required to succeed as a professional surveillance operative.
