Is this the right qualification for your provider?
New provider suitability: Cautious unless the provider already has the relevant staff, facilities, and practical access. Established provider suitability: Stronger, especially where the provider already delivers in law, security, public service, or regulatory operations. Facility pressure: Facilities usually focus on classroom control, secure records, scenario work, case files, communication practice, and assessment administration. Equipment pressure: Equipment may include case-study packs, forms, communication tools, legal or policy references, secure storage, and scenario resources. Staff pressure: Staff should have relevant legal, security, compliance, immigration, customs, policing, military, or public-administration experience. Workplace/practical pressure: Workplace evidence should connect learners to procedures, records, decisions, interviews, inspections, reports, or supervised public-service tasks.
