About Ian Watts

I was a professional investigator in the criminal and civil sectors for almost 30 years before moving into Loss Prevention and Security full time. I now have my own Security Company primarily involved in training security and loss prevention professionals.

I own and run my Company, Lifelong Learning London (International) Ltd. Our services have been retained by clients in the UK, the Netherlands, UAE, Oman, Cyprus and Africa. I am also a partner in a newly formed fraud prevention and detection training and consultancy Company in Uganda.

We develop training programmes within the Loss Prevention and Security industries which provide practical solutions to the challenges all industries face in today's global trade environment. Our programs do not deliver unattainable and expensive ideas. We work with clients to suggest strategies which are affordable and deliverable in relation to the financial and other resources at their disposal.
