Can I pay for the Close Protection course in instalments?
Yes! Adamantine Global understands that the cost of the course is a big factor for a lot of our students and we encourage them to utilise our payment plan option. All that is required is a £500 deposit and then monthly, manageable instalments paid 1 month prior to your course commencing.
What do I need to renew my SIA Close Protection licence?
The new Close Protection Top-up training which takes affect from the 1st of October will require a Level 3 First Aid qualification (FAW, FPOS, FREC) and the new Close Protection top-up training course including Physical Intervention for Close Protection Operatives.
