British Parking Association and City & Guilds Access Level Assured Certificate in Parking Enforcement
Delivered over 4 days, we deliver this course as an Assured Partner of the British Parking Association
This course has, at present, replaced the Level 2 award for Parking Enforcement Officers.
This course has been designed to take Civil Enforcement Officer training to the highest level of realism.
It will help officers understand how to deal with motorists or members of the public who may be angered by their presence or the issuance of a Penalty Charge Notice to their vehicle, in the most professional manner by using all options available to them.
It will build confidence, understand human behaviour and how to remain safe in escalating conflict situations.
Our Managing Director was part of the original British Parking Association and City & Guilds steering group who created the first ever Civil Parking Enforcement Officer training course in the UK. He is available to travel to any location to deliver your training.
