SAFE AND TRAINED
Safe and Trained are experts at delivering training for businesses that employ security individuals.
Under the Private Security Act of 2001 all individuals wishing to work in the private security industry must hold a recognised qualification before applying for a licence. Individuals working in the private security industry must undergo a structured training programme, resulting in one of the recognised security qualifications. Applicants who do not hold a qualification endorsed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) may have their licence application refused.
The SIA has developed a competency (skills) requirement. The aim of this is to create a more competent and professional workforce, which will in turn improve the public image of the private security industry and help make the sector more attractive to potential employees.
Safe and Trained provide training for businesses that have roles as security guarding duties and are supported by Highfieldabc as the Awarding Body. Our course covers the principles of providing security services which supports the skills of manned guarding for your people. This leads to a professional certificate in Providing Security Services.
Safe and Trained security guarding training is for companies and organisations who provide for the physical security of occupied and unoccupied buildings. Site guarding would also fall within this definition.
