Terry Owens, CPP

Terry Owens, CPP worked in law enforcement for 15 years before transitioning to a career in the private sector. ASIS certification and the ASIS community were invaluable resources in helping him grow professionally.

Building off its 2020-2024 Strategic Plan, ASIS International has developed a new strategic plan with a vision to create a safer world by uniting security professionals globally to grow resilient communities.
