What did our partners say?

“I would like to recognise the specific skills and knowledge that our staff have acquired during the training provided by Stratcom Security (Stratcom), with quantifiable results that have benefitted both our learners and the organisation. Stratcom’s delivery style was not only culturally responsive to both Māori and Pacific staff members (which represents 80% of our workforce), they were also able to engage with learners who have not been studying for several years. Stratcom was also generous enough to join in further learning, as a result, many of our employees have achieved level 3 in security and in some cases increasing their NCEA levels.

Our partnership is ongoing with the development of targeted training. Stratcom has designed and developed a set of micro-credentials specifically for us, which has been invaluable.”

– Michelle Macdonald, Training Manager, Secureflight Limited

“The team at Stratcom Security is invested, engaged and committed to learn about each trainee’s individual learning needs. They try and help each one get over their barriers and stay committed to each trainee’s individual learning plans, so that no matter what the circumstances were, they were able to keep everyone engaged and prepare them for the next session. I give Stratcom Security a lot of credits for rising to the challenge and respecting our cultural customs. I thank them for providing our people with the tools and skills to get back into employment.”

– Pena Hakuwai, Chairman, Whanganui Māori Wardens Trust

“We are a local, whanau-based company that is 100% Māori-owned. We have been involved with Stratcom Security since 2017. Over the years, Stratcom Security has continued to assist us in developing our team. The reason this training is so successful is the culturally appropriate manner of delivery. By working as a tight team, doing 3-hour blocks of training, with a meal at the end of each class, the groups have been well supported and encouraged to achieve. Stratcom really understands the value of whanau-based learning and the results have led to more contracts becoming available, increased hours of employment, and better work conditions. 

– Justin Moroney, Managing Director, Waiheke Documents and Security Ltd

“Finishing the SCCC (Security Consultant Certificate of Competence) course is one great achievement.  Many thanks to the team at Stratcom Security, for their support, guidance, and the opportunity to further my security aptitude and exposure. I would totally recommend this course to any security practitioner who are wanting to upskill and develop professionally.”

– Eugene De Leon, 2023 Graduate of SCCC (Micro-credential)

“Stratcom Security has truly uplifted my life, for which I am deeply grateful for. I have received a part-time job with RTC Security. My tutor at Stratcom Security isn’t just an ordinary tutor to me, he is also my mentor, saviour and leader. I cannot thank him enough for the guidance and support that were provided to me.”
