Go beyond the licence

Every licensed CCTV operator holds the same core qualification. That means every operator you are competing with for jobs looks exactly the same on paper. This series gives you specialist skills that set you apart, making you more valuable to employers and opening the door to higher-paying roles.

What could this mean for your earnings?

Operators with specialist qualifications can progress into senior operator, CCTV analyst, and control room supervisor roles where you may earn significantly more than a standard operator position.

Senior and specialist roles (per year)

With the right skills, you can earn up to £6,000 to £21,000 more per year than operators with just a standard SIA licence.

The ROI: If this series helps you secure just £1/hr more, that is over £2,000 extra
per year. A 23x return on a £89.99 investment.
