Learners will be introduced to EAS as part of the fire safety solution for tall residential properties. This CPD course provides learners with an understanding of the requirements of BS 5839-1 in relation to, design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of EAS.

Learners will develop knowledge from the FD&FA maintenance module (C01M05) and/or industry experience and apply this to the ‘recommendations for special inspection on the appointment of a new servicing organization’.

It is a requirement within codes of practice e.g., BS 5839-1, and within legislation e.g., Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, that duties are placed upon employers and employees regarding health & safety and in particular electrical safety.

Learners will be introduced to the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of intruder and hold-up alarm systems.

Learners will be introduced to the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of CCTV systems.

The RQF examination allows learners to demonstrate knowledge of BS 5839-1: 2017 as part of competence in the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of FD&FA systems.

Learners will be introduced to the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of Access Control systems.

This course provides the basic requirements for auditing I&HAS to PD 6662, EN 50131, BS 8243, and access control / CCTV systems to certification bodies' standards. The course enables certified contractors to conduct objective auditing of their own systems.
