Bosch Security Systems, a full-line manufacturer of high-quality security systems and components, has announced that Paul F.Baran, its Corporate Security Consultant, has won the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association (NBFAA) 2006 Sara E.Jackson award.

The award was presented during an evening event hosted by NBFAA and the Alarm Industry Research and Educational Foundation (AIREF) in Las Vegas.

Baran, who serves as NBFAA Education Committee Chairman, was recognized for his outstanding leadership.

A Pennsylvania native, Baran began teaching in 1987 and since then has been actively involved in many NBFAA Committees, most specifically the Education Committee, since 1994.

He has also held various subcommittee chair seats on the NBFAA Fire Section and Membership Committees.

"The leadership and dedication Paul brings impact the association and industry on many levels," said NBFAA Executive Director Merlin Guilbeau.

"Under Paul's chairmanship, we have adopted new National Training School (NTS) guidelines, and expanded course offerings to include topics like CCTV, residential integration, and business skills." Baran also recently became an ASIS International Certified Protection Professional (CPP), the security field's highest designation.

As a board-certified security expert, Baran has met strict eligibility and mastery conditions of the CPP program.

He brings a great deal of security experience to the table - including working for the Department of Homeland Security, which involved more than 700 hours of training.

-more- "Because of his security experience and this certification, Paul is well equipped to assess our customers' goals, evaluate all areas of security, and recommend appropriate solutions," says Shamus Hurley, president of Bosch Security Systems.

"And our parent company, Robert Bosch North America (RBNA), relies on Paul's talents when reviewing the security of its own facilities." The CPP designation encompasses all aspects of security, from physical structural barriers and human resources to policies, procedures and technology.

The designation requires appropriate levels of education and security experience, as well as the passing of a written exam.

Also, the CPP must recertify every three years to ensure their skills remain up to date and in line with industry best practices.
