Tavcom Training is offering students who are looking to develop a career within the electronic security industry, the chance to qualify for a City & Guilds 1853 Technical Certificate.
Paul Tennent, Managing Director of Hampshire-based Tavcom, said: “Tavcom has been a registered City & Guilds approved centre for many years and so our expert tutors are excited about the opportunity to conduct this particular course which will provide clients with an alternative option to a BTEC qualification. With BS EN standards now requiring qualification and competency in a number of disciplines, the City & Guilds 1853 Technical Certificate will be advantageous to anyone who may be working with a wide range of electronic security systems, including CCTV, access control, intruder and fire alarm systems.”
The trainers say that the qualification covers electrical and electronic principles and how to work in electro-technical. It also gives the basic occupational knowledge for surveyors and designers and those commissioning, installing and maintaining systems. The qualification is part of the apprenticeship framework for security systems and results in the awarding of a Level 2 Certificate in Knowledge of Electronic Security and Emergency Systems. The qualification is based on the UK Qualifications Credit Framework (QCF) and maps into the European Qualification Framework.
This City & Guilds course coincides with the publication of Tavcom’s 2014 prospectus (cover pictured) which sets out information on 70 accredited classroom and distant learning online courses. The prospectus can be viewed online at www.tavcom.com.
