Licence Renewals Set to be Refused, Have you completed all your training?

Licensing Services Division (LSD) is undertaking an audit of its database to identify those licence holders who may not have completed all the required training competencies for the Certificate II in Security Operations.

The number of outstanding competencies may vary depending on the number of units undertaken and the activities applied for. There are also a number of reasons why
individual licence holders may not have completed all of the training requirements. These include cases where training organisations deferred competencies, and where applicants received a licence after completing the necessary entry-level training, but failed to complete the remaining training (as stipulated by the conditions of their licence) within the following 12 months.

In October 2009, LSD notified a significant number of licence holders who had not completed all the training requirements. In this letter, LSD advised these licence holders to complete this training prior to renewal or their renewal application would be refused. Approximately half of those licence holders complied.

LSD recently identified a further group of licence holders who have not completed all the training requirements. These licence holders have also been sent a letter informing them of this fact, and advising them to complete the required training prior to renewal or face having their renewal application refused. An extension of time to complete the required training will not be given.

LSD requests that Business Licence holders communicate this message to all of their employees. Assistance in this process is important to ensure that private security businesses are not adversely affected by a reduced number of staff legally qualified to perform routine business activities.
