Secure Urgent Response Global Endorsement

Secure Urgent Response Global Endorsement

 

“Reciprocity, portability, compacts and licensure through endorsement are all different ways to talk about proposed solutions to barriers that exist when trying to remain compliant with licensure and certification laws from one jurisdiction to another. It is all very complex, and each different approach to the problem has its pros and cons. Ultimately, license holders need to be able to function lawfully and professionally in jurisdictions other than their credentialing source of origin.”

“During an all-hazards or other surge type event, regulations are often relaxed through designated disaster preparedness clauses in local laws. The one aspect of this relaxation of licensure law that seems to persist is the disparity between states, provinces and countries with respect to training requirements for line-level security officers, and their impact on a license or registration holder’s ability to surge in and work during the designated preparedness/response time-frame."

”IASIR is uniquely positioned to facilitate a substantive change to the ongoing problem of security professionals being land-locked during disaster declarations solely based on perceived or real differences in training. While each jurisdiction is responsible for regulating the practice of private security within its borders, IASIR has developed and administers an international certification program for candidates and their employers to ensure they have the mobility to go wherever their career and emerging events takes them.””

About IASIR

IASIR was founded in 1993 by a farsighted group of regulatory administrators who realized that by joining hands they could enhance their ability to regulate and promote professionalism of the private security, private investigative, alarm and related industries. Now, 25 years later, IASIR’s membership has grown to include most state and provincial government regulatory agencies, as well as law enforcement and industry members from across North America and increasingly, other parts of the world.

IASIR President Delivers Address on SURGE Initiative at India Security Leadership Summit

NEW DELHI — Fabian P. Blache III, president of the International Association of Security and Investigative Regulators (IASIR), will deliver an address at the CAPSI Security Leadership Summit December 17 to introduce executives from India’s private security industry and top government officials to IASIR’s Secure Urgent Response Global Endorsement (S.U.R.G.E.) Certification™.

IASIR has developed and administers the S.U.R.G.E. international training certification for security personnel and their employers. The online program establishes a minimum training standard in order to meet requirements for license portability or reciprocity across jurisdictional boundaries.

S.U.R.G.E. Certified Security Officers are required to attain 100 percent on the final exam at each of three program levels, an achievement made possible through a state-of-the-art curriculum that tests at various checkpoints then retrains where mastery is not achieved. “In this way, we ensure that every individual has internalized the information in a way that will allow them to operationalize the training in the field,” said Blache.

IASIR has partnered with the Central Association of Private Security Industry (CAPSI) and the Indian government to bolster CAPSI’s accomplishments in the establishment of training standards. CAPSI, representing the world’s largest security workforce with 7 million employed, is an international leader in the formulation of standards and best practices, particularly in regard to overcoming obstacles and barriers in times of crisis.

IASIR is a professional association made up of state and provincial government regulators of the private security, investigative and alarm industries, as well as law enforcement and industry members from across North America and other parts of the world. The Association focuses on collaboration between these groups to enhance public safety by promoting professionalism through effective regulation.
