The Linx International Group has announced that the Executive Director of Tavcom Training, Paul Tennent, will step down from his role at the end of November 2018.

Specialist provider of accredited security systems, Tavcom Training was established in 1994 by Paul’s father, Mike Tennant, and quickly became an organisation that was synonymous with quality technical security training.

Paul has played a key role in the development and success of Tavcom, using his energy and passion to help grow the organisation throughout his 19 years with the business.

David Gill, Managing Director of the Linx Group, said: “Tavcom Training is defined as the ‘gold standard’ for security systems courses and Paul has been instrumental in building this successful business and maintaining the high standards expected.

“On behalf of the Linx International Group, I would like to thank Paul for his long service, hard work and dedication.”

Paul Tennent commented: “I have thoroughly enjoyed my time helping to take Tavcom from small business beginnings, housed in my late father’s garage, to the world-leading provider of what quality security systems training should look like.

“I am immensely proud of the reputation we have built for Tavcom Training in the security sector, as the company continues to set the benchmark in the delivery of relevant courses, taught by the very best tutors in the highest quality facilities.

“I wish Tavcom Training and the Linx International Group every success for the future.”
