Introduction

Our intensive Alarm & Access control course has been carefully designed in a way that equips students with the skills and expertise to competently install a wide variety of Alarm systems on the market, and not just the ones you may be currently familiar and comfortable with. Students will gain an in-depth knowledge of access control with practical hands-on exercises. With their new found skills, qualified students will find themselves positioned with a strong competitive advantage within the monitoring, security and surveillance installation industry.

Upon successful course completion, Chevron students obtain the internationally  recognised FETAC qualification.
