Getting into operational investigations for the public sector can be challenging, whether you have any or no experience in government security. While this barrier may seem daunting, one pathway into the industry is through undergoing formal study, specifically with a Certificate IV in Government Security.
This qualification can show employers that you are qualified and proficient in government security-related functions. With this qualification, you can prove your competencies in undertaking a security role, and your employer can acknowledge your ability to meet the legislative and ethical requirements of public service.
If you have any experience in a related sector, for example you have worked as a Police Officer or have served in the military, you could apply for recognition of prior learning (RPL) to receive your qualification without study. Any experience you may have in this area will be credited, so you can be on your way to taking your career to the next level. If you need to study, you may consider taking the course online to provide greater flexibility in your studies to suit your lifestyle.
With this qualification, you can gain skills and experience in:
• Handling sensitive information
• Gathering and analysing information
• Maintaining Workplace safety
• Conducting personnel security assessments
• Learning principles and values of public service
A Certificate IV in Government Security can prepare you to take on various roles in the police force, government investigations, or government security, join the border force, or qualify for corrective services. With this qualification, there are endless opportunities available! If you want more information about any of our courses, contact us today on 1300 517 039 or email info@3cir.com.
