A former graduate of a course for security staff in Edinburgh has become a trainer.

Cyprus Phipps joins a team of expert security tutors, after a 13-year career working in door security.

David Evans, centre owner at T2I Courses, was impressed by the attitude of his former pupil.

David said: “When I met Cyprus, I was so impressed with how engaged and switched on he was. He’s got a lot of experience and maturity, which is essential for teaching students to manage conflict.

Cyprus said: “I’ve spent many years working in the security business and I have seen how important it is to have well-trained, confident staff.

“I’m very pleased I can now give some of my knowledge back to the industry as a tutor.”
