The Police Crime Prevention Academy has launched the Level 3 ‘Prevention of Extremism and Terrorism’ (PET) NVQ as an eLearning qualification.
The Level 3 PET qualification is a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) that’s accredited by the awarding body ProQual and recognised by UK employers. It will provide security managers with the formal recognition of the vital role that they play in managing the safety of visitors and colleagues.
The refreshed content of the Level 3 PET qualification was undertaken as a result of the findings of the Manchester Arena bomb inquiry and the tireless campaigning of Figen Murray OBE, the mother of one of the 22 victims, Martyn Hett. Completion of the qualification will help keep people safer, enhance our national security and reduce the risk to the public from terrorism by the protection of public venues.
The Level 3 PET qualification takes around 4 hours to complete, and includes a voiceover and videos, with the delegate having the opportunity to pause/leave and come back any time by clicking ‘resume’ when prompted. Access to the eLearning content lasts for 12 months from the date that the eLearning content is first accessed, and a workbook must be completed and assessed to achieve the qualification. Specialist learner support is available for neurodiverse issues and there is a helpdesk for any issues when accessing or undertaking the qualification.
The qualification costs £290 plus VAT and is accessible via the Academy’s own eLearning platform, providing delegates with the flexibility to complete at their own pace whilst avoiding extraction from work, travel time and disruption to family life.

These are available to both the public and private sectors, and they provide an excellent opportunity to upskill and refresh knowledge and its’ application in the workplace.
