Campus Security

Unison provides campus security services to many post-secondary schools, from small satellite campuses to prominent urban colleges. However, we recognize that each facility has its own issues and cultural characteristics. Therefore, we personalize our selection process to match your institution with the proper security team.

We protect millions of students across Canada, and we understand that risk factors differ depending on the location and type of post-secondary institution and the structure and makeup of the student body. Open-structured buildings, parking services, student housing, vehicle threats, food and beverage establishments, property theft hazards, student misconduct, and campus property and trespasser threats are all covered by our campus security services. In addition, our employees undertake extensive security training to provide a secure environment for our employees, faculty, and visitors.

In addition, our workers get extensive security training to ensure a safe environment for staff, professors, and visitors that support student learning and development.

Students, workers, and visitors to your post-secondary campuses deserve dedicated, well-trained professionals to ensure their safety and security. Unfortunately, when it comes to post-secondary institutions, campus security services are not one-size-fits-all. Depending on your institution, the service you require may differ. Our officers get a variety of campus security services training, including:

  • Patrols on the go include bicycle and mobile patrols.
  • Event assistance (such as sporting, fairs, rallies, and cultural events).
  • Detection of drugs and explosives.
  • Resolving unique security problems, such as an active threat event.
  • Cooperation with local law enforcement.
  • Emergency preparation.
  • Alcohol and drug abuse education.
  • Effective, clear, and polite communication with faculty, staff, and students.
  • Complete knowledge of the campus’s laws, policies, and processes.

We conduct a full security risk assessment before beginning formal campus security services under a new contract. This study focuses on crime data, facility and personnel security concerns, facility layouts, and historical security concerns. This is just one of the ways we customize our security services program to fit your needs.

Our rigorous screening, selection, and training procedures ensure that every officer is prepared to handle any situation while patrolling your premises. With a customer service-focused approach, our officers are prepared for any security circumstance at your institution, from counter-terrorism training and prevention to events and activities and even media training.

We recognize that colleges and universities are places where students learn and form memories, and we believe that security should support that atmosphere. That is why, rather than enforcing, our cops undertake mental health first aid.
