In recent years, there has been an increased awareness and consciousness around energy conservation with the ultimate goal of reducing humankind’s growing carbon footprint. Solar energy is at the forefront of generating renewable energy that is environmentally friendly, which is why CENTURION’s access automation solutions integrate seamlessly with solar technology. This course will teach you how to calculate solar requirements, as well as covering the technical aspects of a solar-powered installation.
CLAWS access control
CLAWS are formidable, highly-durable roadway spikes that can be added to an existing traffic barrier or access control system for maximum security and as a reliable means of preventing tail-gating.

G-ULTRA access control
In 2017, CENTURION launched the innovative ULTRA range of GSM monitoring and control solutions. In this relatively new course, you’ll be introduced to the range’s vast array of features which includes mobile access, time-barring and scheduling, input-output mapping, easy programming and online user profiles.
Psychology in Business
While the vast majority of CENTURION’s courses have focused on developing technical skills, the Psychology in Business course has been designed to teach a better understanding of why people make certain decisions in the context of business. According to training manager Chris Grobler, this is a tragically overlooked but critical component of sales training, with the result that many salespeople lack conviction when selling their wares.
The course will cover the following material:
- Why do humans do the things they do?
- The working of the human brain
- Basic psychology
- Individual purpose
- Vision
- Mental toughness
