The Security Industry Association (SIA) has secured approval from the U.S. Department of Labor for its national programme standards establishing a new apprenticeship initiative for security technicians and installers.

This 12-month programme, created to help address the security industry’s workforce challenges, diversify the talent pipeline, and foster career development opportunities within the industry, is designed to develop basic networking, IT, and cybersecurity competence among systems installers through workplace learning and one-to-one mentoring.
