Close Protection Operatives renewing their SIA licence must now complete the Close Protection Refresher Course. This training is a legal requirement for continuing to work in the security industry and ensures that licence holders remain up to date with current risks, responsibilities, and best practice.
We appreciate that taking time off is difficult, as such we utilise blended learning to reduce your time in centre. To comply with SIA regulations you will need to complete an e-learning course prior to attending, this reduces your time in centre by a full day. A link to this e-learning will be sent to you via email.
In addition, learners attending the refresher course must hold a First Aid at Work (FAW) certificate as a minimum, as first aid knowledge is now a required element of the updated training standards. If you do not currently hold a valid First Aid qualification we run a FAW immediately prior to the CP Refresher training.
The Close Protection Refresher Course is designed to update your knowledge, reinforce essential safety skills, and ensure you meet the latest SIA licensing requirements when renewing your licence.
