SFJ Awards Level 4 Certificate for Protective Security Advisers

Overview

🕮 Off the shelf (OTS)

A new SFJ Awards qualification designed in collaboration with and endorsed by the Protective Security Centre, Government Security, to bolster protective security skills and support the UK’s national security has launched from PerpetuityARC Training.

This regulated qualification – designed by SFJ Awards in collaboration with the Protective Security Centre (Home Office) is designed to upskill security professionals and attract new talent to the protective security sector. It is the first qualification to be endorsed by all three of the government’s National Technical Authorities – NPSA, UK NACE and NCSC.

The objective of the programme is to provide learners with baseline knowledge and skills required to carry out the role of a Protective Security Adviser. This qualification equips delegates with the competencies to understand how the protective security disciplines dovetail to provide the foundations of ‘security convergence’.

Completion of this qualification will provide an understanding of how threat actors target us with a converged approach, and the importance of protecting organisational assets with robust converged security mitigations providing organisational seniors with a single overview of protective security risk.

Please note, before applying for this programme, it is essential that individuals and organisations understand the commitment required to successfully complete the course. This includes 5 full-time days in classroom (either virtual or face-to-face) followed by up to nine months of supported self-study that delegates complete online. Learners will be required to complete all work and assessments in order to successfully pass the course and receive the Level 4 Certificate.

Successful completion of this course requires access an external online assessment. The online assessment platform may not be accessible from Civil Service department IT due to security restrictions. If you have any questions or believe you may be impacted by these restrictions, please contact support@governmentcampus.co.uk.
