The course “Surveillance and Counter-Surveillance Techniques (SST)” It provides comprehensive and specialized training in operational methods of surveillance, tracking, counter-surveillance detection and protection of sensitive operations in urban and complex environments.
Taught and developed by A-GLOSS – International Training Platform, This program addresses both the classical fundamentals and modern techniques of surveillance and counter-surveillance, applied to contexts of security, intelligence, executive protection, and operational research.
The course allows you to understand the complete cycle of surveillance: planning, execution, recording, analysis and neutralization of threats, always within a legal, ethical and professional framework.
The course combines theoretical modules with a practical approach, integrating real case analysis, applied exercises, operational simulations and observation work in different environments.
Teaching resources are used such as specialized texts, graphic material, photographs, operational diagrams and interactive online content, facilitating progressive learning applicable to the field.
Includes:
Initial list of topics and exercises that are developed throughout the course.
Course content in web format, with texts, images, graphics and educational resources that serve as theoretical and practical support for student training.
Supporting documents for reading and analysis, which may consist of specialized articles, technical material, case studies and videos.
Self-assessments at the end of each content to reinforce key concepts and operating procedures.
Voluntary videoconferences, which are recorded for later viewing.
Individualized tutoring, providing continuous support to achieve course objectives and optimal mastery of the techniques taught.
Forums and messaging, where the student can interact with the teacher and resolve operational or conceptual doubts.
Specialized bibliography, aimed at consolidating theoretical and practical knowledge in surveillance and counter-surveillance.
At the end of the course, participants will receive a certificate of completion endorsed by A-GLOSS, which certifies their knowledge and skills in surveillance and counter-surveillance techniques, operational analysis, threat detection, and protection of operations in sensitive environments.
Apply fixed, mobile and mixed surveillance techniques in urban environments.
Detecting behaviors, patterns, and counter-surveillance maneuvers.
Identify points of contact, suspicious deliveries, and operational communications.
Record information discreetly, securely, and legally.
Execute coverage, relief, and multi-team coordination protocols.
Analyze physical and digital environments for threat prevention.
Manage operational risks during prolonged observation tasks.
