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.
