SIA CCTV Operator
3 days of Level 2 CCTV Operator (Public Space Surveillance) training at our Park Royal centre (NW10), the qualification you need for an SIA CCTV licence. Pay £100 online to book and £200 at the centre.
This SIA CCTV course in Park Royal is the Level 2 Award for CCTV Operators (Public Space Surveillance), the qualification behind an SIA CCTV licence. Three days cover the law, the operator's role and practical camera work.
At Park Royal this course starts every other Wednesday. There are 7 dates open to book now, listed below with the day each one starts. The course runs over 3 days, 9am to 6pm each day. Every session counts towards the SIA's minimum hours, so plan to be there for all of it.
Training is at Space House, Abbey Road, London NW10 7SU, first floor on the left, next to Topps Tiles. Space House is on Abbey Road next to Topps Tiles. Park Royal (Piccadilly line) and Harlesden (Bakerloo line and Overground) are the nearest stations. Park Royal is our West London base, on Abbey Road in the middle of the trading estate. It is the natural choice for people in Ealing, Wembley, Harlesden and Acton who would rather not cross London for a course.
The full fee is £300. You pay £100 online when you book and the remaining £200 at the centre on your first day. The deposit is not refundable, because your place is registered and the trainer is arranged as soon as you book, but you can move to another date once, free of charge, with at least 48 hours notice.
Mostly people who want control room work in shopping centres, transport hubs, hospitals and town centre CCTV rooms, and door staff adding a second licence. You need to be 18 or over with the right to work in the UK. No security experience is needed, and the exams are taken at the centre at the end of the course.
Your passport or UK driving licence, two proofs of address from the last three months and three passport size photos. For an SIA licence course you also need your two ACT certificates, which are free online; the joining instructions explain how to get them.
The full syllabus, the units and exams, and the questions people ask before booking are on the SIA CCTV course page.
