GuardSkills

GuardSkills is the essential mobile training app for professionals in the UK’s private security industry. If your employer has assigned you workplace training, you can now complete it conveniently through the GuardSkills app.

No sign-up is needed. Simply log in using your email and a one-time secure code provided by your employer to begin your training journey.

How It Works

GuardSkills is built to make professional training simple and accessible on any device. Once you receive your email invitation, download the app, enter your login code, and follow a short onboarding process to set up your learner profile.

The training assigned by your employer is already waiting for you in the app. Courses are broken down into short video-based units so you can complete them quickly—even during breaks or while commuting. Once a course is completed, you’ll take a short quiz to assess your understanding.

If you pass, you’ll immediately earn a digital certificate you can view, download, and share. If not, you can revisit the course and try again when you're ready.
