Sport Event Security Aware (SESA)

Official Launch - March 2013 - NCS4


The National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4), at The University of Southern Mississippi offers the Sport Event Security Aware (SESA) certification.  NCS4 offers SESA certification to all professional, collegiate, and amateur organizations that own or operate sports venues. The core of SESA is a set of scalable standards for assessing risks; identifying vulnerabilities; developing appropriate plans, policies, and procedures; and providing training and exercise to venue staff.  The result is a continual four-year cycle to review and upgrade safety, security, and incident management programs at participating sports venues.
