  2. First Aid – Learners will need to show that they hold a current and valid First Aid or Emergency First Aid certificate that meets the requirements of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.

  3. English language proficiency – Most SIA courses will require individuals to have a good level of English language proficiency. This is because many of the course materials and assessments will be in English, and individuals need to be able to understand and communicate effectively.

This is to ensure that individuals do not have any criminal convictions that could impact their ability to work in the security industry.
