Service Description

Ensure safe and legal working practices as a security officer! Security officers often work in challenging or isolated environments. It’s thus important they have the right training to conduct the role effectively while ensuring the safety of themselves and the public. What’s more, they need to meet legal requirements established by bodies such as the Security Industry Authority (SIA). The Highfield Level 2 Award for Security Officers in the Private Security Industry (Refresher) has been developed for learners who currently hold a licence from the Security Industry Authority (SIA) to work as a security officer and need to be brought up to date with the new licence-linked qualifications requirements. To complete this qualification learners are expected to undertake approximately 9 hours of learning. The SIA stipulates a minimum of 3 hours (0.5-days) if self-study is undertaken. Please refer to Highfield's qualification specification for further details on self-study. Topics include: Principles of terror threat awareness Know how to conduct effective search procedures Understand how to keep vulnerable people safe
