"Wonderful experience being trained by Ben McCarty. He knows his job very well. Give us the trainees opportunities to express ourselves, ask questions and respond to them accordingly. But he is sometimes too fast with words that some of us who are not English native speakers sometimes find it a little difficult to follow along. But he’s a great trainer."
“The whole course was well taught and delivered in a professional manner. My instructor, James Gilles, was very knowledgeable over all subjects covered in the door supervisor and the first aid course. any questions raised were answered immediately and a full explanation given. 10/10 for the whole experience & the support from Get Licensed."
The course takes three days. On completion, you will have learned the key procedures for this role, including legal information and an overview of the security industry.
Due to this job involving cash and valuables, you will need to pass a criminal background check. It doesn't have to be a perfect record, but you are unlikely to pass the DBS check if you have had offences for dishonesty, fraud or theft. Remember that the £190 will not be refunded if you fail the check before applying.
To work as a CVIT operative, you need to have a CVIT licence. The CVIT course trains you in specific skills to cover this role. A door supervisor course equips you with different skills. You can hold both licences together, and if you currently have another SIA licence, whether it be as a security guard, door supervisor or CCTV operative, you will get a 50% discount on the £190 CVIT licence fee.
According to the SIA website, it takes 25 working days to process a licence application. In some cases, this can take up to 6 weeks due to additional security checks.
The SIA Cash and Valuables in Transit (CVIT) Licence means that you will be able to get higher-paid security work where the transfer of cash and valuables are transferred. Often this might be large stores, banks, museums or exhibitions.
It's illegal to work in the security industry without an SIA licence. Working in this specialised area of security means that large sums of cash and valuables are at stake. Due to insurance purposes, employers will always check you you have the necessary CVIT SIA licence.
You will need to renew your licence after three years. The good news, however, is no refresher training is required.
It will cost £190 to renew your SIA licence.
Don't let your licence expire. You can start the renewal process from four months before it expires. Don't worry; you won't waste money; your new licence will begin from the date your old licence expires.
