Collective preparedness starts with skilled individuals
How to deliver this qualification
To deliver the Level 3 Award in Counter-Terrorism Protective Security and Preparedness qualification you must be an SFJ Awards approved centre. There are two routes to applying for approval to deliver the qualification.
- New centres – Route 1: If you are not currently approved to deliver qualifications with SFJ Awards, you will need to go through the full centre approval process. This typically takes 4-6 weeks from submission to decision.
- Existing centres – Route 2: If you are already an SFJ Awards approved centre, you follow a streamlined process focussed only on what’s needed to add this qualification to your account, keeping this quick and proportionate.
Whichever route you need to take, our team will support you throughout the process to help you move forward with confidence.
