Reapply for Your Security Officer Credentials with RPL

Upskill Easily and Quickly with Core Training Group

Imagine you let your Security licence lapse! How can you reapply for your licence? You need a current qualification! If your licence has recently lapsed (in the past 24 months or less) and you are still actively working in a security aligned position, it might be possible for you to apply for qualification issue with a current Certificate II Security Operations qualification via RPL.

What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)?

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a streamlined process that acknowledges the skills, experience, and qualifications you already have. Rather than starting from scratch, RPL allows you to bridge the gap between your current certification and the refresher training you need. At Core Training Group, we combine RPL with Gap Training to ensure you meet the currency requirements associated with issuing a qualification under RPL criteria.

Why Use RPL to Upskill?

Upgrading your qualification doesn’t have to mean putting your life on hold. Here’s how Core Training Group streamlines the process for you:

  1. Save Time and Money: avoid long, unnecessary training courses. RPL credits your existing, current experience, so you only need to complete the essential gap training, saving you time off work.
  2. Meet Industry Standards: the security industry has evolved, and requirements like the SAIWA exam are now part of the process. We’ll prepare you with everything you need to pass.
  3. Flexible and Efficient Training: with our one- or two-day Gap Training sessions, you can meet WAPOL’s requirements without disrupting your work schedule.
  4. Attend the Gap Training, then dedicate yourself to the course materials preparing for your exam.
  5. Sit the SAIWA Exam: This written examination tests your knowledge based on the training course content. If this is new to you, don’t worry—our course materials will prepare you.
  6. Submit Your Application: Apply for your Security Officer license with your new Certificate II in Security Operations and the current First Aid Certificate (HLTAID011 Provide First Aid) (don’t forget to add Crowd Control at the same time!)
