Crowd Management Certified
TWIC Certified
Under the current law, the requirement for crowd managers has expanded to encompass “all assembly occupancies”. This means if you are having an event you may fall under this definition of “assembly occupancies”, that in the past were not required to have a crowd manager or crowd manager supervisor. Under the new law, you are required to maintain a crowd manager(s). If you are an owner or manager of one of these establishments and you do not currently hold a valid crowd manager license or if you currently have a certificate, then you are out of compliance with the new law. Here’s where we can help.SecurityRI.com has several Certified Crowd Managers on staff that we can have attend your events to keep you safe and in compliance.
