Regardless of how patriotic you might be, we Brits are experts when it comes to pulling off major events and the Royal Wedding was no exception to that rule. But, apart from a rather famous family being involved, why do you suppose the day was such a success? Answer, expert security co-ordination. As you are no doubt aware it’s hard enough having a bunch of people over for a summer barbeque, but imagine having an estimated 1.2 million people in your front garden.
What’s always extraordinary at events of this scale is that okay the police are conspicuous by their uniform, but you’d be surprised just how many low profile characters there are mingling with the crowds to ensure maximum safety measures are in place. This isn’t a covert tactic to catch people unawares it’s a fundamental part of the security strategy at crowd pulling events like the Royal Wedding or a live music venue.
As part of your SIA Training you will study the effects of having too many uniformed security personnel present can have on a large gathering, too many can cause crowds to feel intimidated and this creates a negative atmosphere, one that means problems are expected. The fewer official looking people around the more likely people are to relax and enjoy themselves.
Taking this level of tuition into account, it’s easy to understand that training for posts in the security industry is probably more detailed than you imagined, wearing a uniform doesn’t necessarily mean you are capable of thinking laterally nor does it make you more alert to deal effectively with difficult situations.
The professional training that leads to your SIA Licence is monitored by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) who report to the Home Secretary on both the standards of training and the calibre of the people working in the industry as a whole. The support of the SIA means your credentials are highly regarded as the best qualifications available, and in fact without your licence it is illegal for anyone to be employed in a security role.
When most people think of security personnel it’s normally along the lines of a lonely vigil through the night or prowling the corridors of empty office buildings, on the contrary, once you have your qualifications you decide which direction your career takes, and there’s nothing stopping you entering into managerial or consultative roles in the industry.
The way to approach your SIA Training is as an investment for the future with unlimited prospects for a rewarding career in a highly regarded profession. Like any job it’s what you put in that counts and your hard work and determination to succeed will be well rewarded.
The security sector is one of the highest growth industries in the UK just now and there are numerous well paid vacancies available right now. Whether you decide to take the more flexible agency route, which means you pick and choose when and where you work, or if you want a full-time contract, all that stands in your way is an SIA Licence.
There are training centres throughout the UK with flexible times available so that you don’t even need to give up your current job to train – you can, in some cases, train in the evenings or at weekends. The length of the course depends on which sector of the industry you decide to specialise in, but within a month you could be well on your way to earning a five figure salary and looking forward to an excellent and rewarding future.
Talk to one of the friendly staff at www.get-licenced.co.uk and they’ll give you all the details of courses available and where the most convenient centre is for you to complete your training. Once you’ve completed the course they’ll even assist you in completing your licence application and in a few easy steps you’re on your way to a brilliant future.
