Scotland's leading security qualification

• Supported by high-quality learning materials

• The required qualification to allow learners to renew their SIA licence

Developed by our industry experts and based on the Security Industry Authority’s (SIA) own specifications, this qualification 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.
