If you hold a qualification in security or a security-related discipline obtained overseas you may be exempt from some of the training required for an SIA licence.

Look through the table below and check the box for any qualifications you currently hold. The table shows all of the overseas qualifications we currently allow exemptions for.

If the qualification you hold is not listed it may be because we are not aware of it or because we haven't yet mapped it against our SIA competency standard.

It is important to ensure that training remains current. Therefore, qualifications allowing exemption from the SIA approved training must be no more than three years old, except where otherwise stated.
