What is the ISIA’s relationship with CerticCS
The ISIA has partnered with CerticCS because of its independence as a certification body and its long tradition of working with the private security industry. On the ISIA’s behalf, we independently assess and certify the Association’s members and their compliance with the requirements of Qualsec.
The Irish Security Industry Association (ISIA) has always had a tradition of raising standards in the Private Security Industry. The underlying ethos of the Irish Security Industry Association is based around codes of practice, standards and quality service to which members must sign up and adhere to. The introduction of licensing in 2007 has set minimum standards for the security industry and was the first step towards establishing standards across the wider security industry.
