Career Pathways for an Integrated Electronic Security Consultant
In many ways, integrated electronic security consultancy is the culmination of years of experience, learning and development that come together to create a new approach.
Many people with a technical background and experience of electronic security applications have observed how they increasingly converge with computer systems that manage all manner of business processes. As a consequence, they decide to invest in this potential and learn how to bring the two strands together.

Others, perceiving opportunities in the electronic security field, come to this role from a background in information technology and its application to business improvement.
It is highly likely that this sort of position could involve collaboration, even convergence with a business development role in an electronic security company. The integration factor bridges the technical and security consultant roles in a company, and takes both roles several steps further.
As a consultant, your next move could be to head up business development or to move into the management side of a business. You may want to consider courses such as the Diploma of Information Technology (Systems Analysis and Design) with the inclusion of broader ICT and business skills, or a Diploma of Security and Risk Management.
