Training Forms to Accompany First Time Applications

Applicants applying for a PSA licence for the first time must submit proof of successful completion of training.

Security Guard (Guarding), Door Supervisor and Enforcement Guard

First time applicants have 36 months in which to submit their application following successful completion of approved training. Training that has been undertaken outside the 36 month period will not be accepted for licensing purposes. Applications for a licence must be accompanied by a candidates QQI certificate. However, for a 6 month period after training, a Temporary Results Form (TRF) from your training provider will be acceptable.

A Declaration of Training signed by both the applicant and the company training officer is required. This letter must state the start date of employment and must be submitted in support of the licence application. The applicant must be employed by a PSA approved contractor, licensed in this sector, to be eligible for these licences.

Submitting false, altered or forged training documentation is a serious offence. Anyone considering submitting a forged document as part of their licence application needs to be aware that this is fraud. It a serious criminal offence punishable by up to 10 years imprisonment.

Submission of Valid Training Results Forms (TRF)
The Private Security Authority (PSA) reminds all licence applicants of the critical importance of submitting valid Training Results Forms (TRF) as part of the application process.

The PSA carries out checks on every Training Results Form (TRF) to ensure each applicant for a licence has completed the required training. Failure to submit a valid TRF will result in your application being rejected.
The PSA is committed to maintaining the highest standards in the private security industry and will take the necessary steps to enforce compliance. Where we discover a forged document, you will not be issued with a PSA licence.  In addition, the matter will be referred to An Garda Síochána for investigation and possible prosecution.
Submitting false, altered or forged training documentation is a serious offence. Anyone considering submitting a forged document as part of their licence application needs to be aware that this is fraud. It a serious criminal offence punishable by up to 10 years imprisonment.
