Attending GSX+? Here Are the Sessions Campus Security Pros Should Attend
Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2020 will be held online this year, September 21-25.
In June, ASIS International announced that, due to concerns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2020 would move to a fully virtual platform — now titled Global Security Exchange Plus (GSX+). In making this transition, ASIS says it has created a completely new experience for the security industry. According to the association, the new GSX+ delivers a host of advantages and opportunities that go beyond what the in-person conference had to offer.
“For attendees who appreciated the opportunity to network at GSX, the virtual GSX+ platform magnifies this — since there is no required travel time between education sessions, happy hours and other networking events,” ASIS said in an announcement. “In fact, it is possible to be at more than one event simultaneously while sitting at your computer. Finally, by reducing car, train and air travel, organizations and individuals are helping to minimize their carbon footprint.”
Here are some of the GSX+ educational sessions that might interest school, university, healthcare facility and campus protection practitioners:
- The Emerging Role of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) in Healthcare Security
- Opening Doors in 2020: Access Control Technology Trends
- Using Corporate and Public Art as a CPTED Strategy
