Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Do I need my SIA licence already to take this course?

Ideally, yes, as the course assumes you can legally work as a security officer. However, if you’re still studying for your SIA, you can begin the course in parallel. By the time your licence arrives, you’ll be fully prepared to start applying immediately.

Q2: How long does the course take?

The course is designed to be completed in under 4 hours, including videos and exercises. Most learners finish it over a weekend, making it quick and efficient.

Q3:  Will this guarantee me a job?

While no course can guarantee employment, this course significantly improves your chances by teaching you how hiring managers filter candidates. If you apply the strategies, write the CV, send applications, follow the walk-in method, and prepare for interviews, you will be a much stronger candidate than 90% of the competition.

Q4:  Is this only for people in London?

No, the course is applicable across the entire UK. While it highlights specific opportunities in London, the walk-in approach, CV templates, vetting processes, and interview strategies are relevant nationwide.

Q5: How long do I have access to the course?

You will have 1 year access to the course, allowing you to revisit any module at any time, whether you’re changing roles, advancing in your career, or just refreshing your interview prep.

Q6: Is the course recognised by the SIA?

This course is focused on career development and employability, not directly on SIA licensing. It is certified by London Security College, a recognized UK security training provider, but it does not affect your SIA licence status.
