About the CTCB
Our Story
The Counter Terrorism Certification Board (CTCB) was established in 2013 with the launch of its first certification program, the Certified Counter Terrorism Practitioner (CCTP). Recognizing the growing and evolving threat of terrorism worldwide, our founders saw the urgent need for standardized certification in the counter-terrorism and security industries.
Since then, we have remained dedicated to shaping best practices and education in counter-terrorism, security, and safety. Our programs are continually updated to ensure they stay relevant and provide tactical and strategic value to professionals in the field.
Who are we
In an increasingly fast-paced and unpredictable world, terrorism and security threats continue to pose significant risks, regardless of location. Ensuring the safety of individuals, assets, and communities has become a global priority.
At the Counter Terrorism Certification Board (CTCB), we are committed to raising the standards of operational effectiveness and awareness across the security industry. Our mission is to provide advanced training in strategies and techniques that mitigate or address the complex security challenges faced by corporations, government agencies, and the public every day.
As a globally recognized Certification Body, CTCB sets the benchmark for personnel certification in the security sector. We aim to ensure that security professionals are equipped to perform consistently, competently, and reliably across various geographical and strategic environments, empowering them to safeguard both local and global security.
We offer a diverse array of certification programs, available both in-person and online, including the esteemed Certified Counter Terrorism Practitioner (CCTP) qualification. The CCTP certification is the only accredited program of its kind, providing formal recognition of the knowledge, skills, and expertise essential for making meaningful contributions to the protection of people and assets worldwide.
