e-learning courses involve self learning, through NSI’s e-learning platform and can be accessed at any time and completed at your own pace. They do not involve a tutor. Onsite courses are delivered at your premises by an NSI tutor. Classroom courses are delivered at an NSI training venue. Remote training is delivered online, led by an NSI trainer. Note: The same training course can often be delivered using the Onsite, Classroom or Remote approach.

NSI trainers have typically worked in industry and also for NSI as auditors for many years giving them unique insight and expert knowledge of the standards. In many cases our trainers also sit on British Standards committiees and so are on the cutting edge of standards development.

You are responsible for maintaining your own CPD records. This can be done through the Security Institute’s website www.security-institute.org

NSI training courses are recognised by the Security Institute. One CPD point is awarded by the Security Institute for each learning hour. Six points are awarded for classroom courses and three points for e-learning courses.
The Security Institute’s website provides further advice and information on how to collate and manage your CPD activities www.security-institute.org

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the process of continuing learning throughout our professional careers by acquiring job-related competence and expertise.  These skills can be gained from many different sources. The Security Institute recommends everyone undertakes CPD to keep pace with changes in the sector. It is generally accepted as a good thing for people who are serious about their career development to do.  Chartered Security Professionals (CSyPs) must undertake CPD as must Fellows of the Institute. (FSyI).
