What is Regulation 21 Training?

Regulation 21 stipulates that security officers issued with firearms must receive regular training to ensure the proper and safe handling of firearms and ammunition. Specifically:

  • Regulation 21 (viii) requires that security officers undergo at least one proper practical training session every 12 months (or within a shorter period, if necessary), at the cost of the security company. This session ensures officers are proficient in the proper and safe use of firearms and ammunition.
  • Regulation 21 (s) (ix) mandates that security officers attend a briefing session at least once every 12 months (or sooner if required) to review legal principles, procedures, and their legal duties related to firearms possession, carrying, custody, and use.

What Does Regulation 21 Training Include?

Our Regulation 21 training courses are specifically designed to meet the legal requirements set forth by the Firearms Control Act, while also providing practical skills that are critical forthe safety and efficiency of security officers. The training includes:

  • Theoretical Training: A comprehensive session on the legal principles, safety protocols, and correct procedures regarding firearm use.
  • Practical Training: Hands-on training with firearms, including live ammunition, to ensure officers are fully capable of handling their weapons in real-world scenarios. Assessment included.
