CT Protect
Quality Assurance
Individuals will use the Individual Event Assessment Procedure to assess changes in event-specific target attractiveness and risk ratings. A Sampling Management Program will be established to audit a selection of client-conducted assessments, ensuring quality assurance in decision-making. Initially, more events will be sampled, with frequency decreasing as competence and confidence grow, reducing corporate risk. Sampling can be tailored to the client’s risk appetite.
