From 1 April 2026, this training became mandatory and will support your SIA licence renewal when the time comes.

Completing the training early is a sensible step and should help make your renewal process as straightforward as possible.

The refresher course for CPOs is designed to meet the mandatory requirements introduced under the updated SIA rules that came into effect on 1 April 2026.

Once you successfully complete the course, you will have met the additional training requirement.

The PBA course includes both practical and knowledge-based assessments, in line with the qualification requirements.

Results are normally issued shortly after the final practical assessments have taken place, once all internal quality assurance checks have been completed.
