What ID Do I Need to Bring to a Course?

For your SIA course, bringing the correct identification is crucial. Here’s why:

  1. Proof of ID: To verify your identity and ensure that the person attending the course is the same as the one who booked it. This helps prevent fraud and maintains the integrity of the certification process.

  2. Proofs of Address: To confirm your current residence, which is often necessary for background checks and regulatory compliance. It ensures that the training provider and SIA have accurate and up-to-date information.

  3. Passport-size Photo: For identification purposes during the course and for official records.

  4. EFAW Certificate: If you have not booked an EFAW course with us, please be sure that you bring a valid EFAW certificate with you.

Make sure all documents are original and physical copies. Photocopies or scans are not accepted.
