Information provided by various external sources

Established in 2019, Skills for Jobs (SfJ) was setup to provide specialist training courses for people wishing to start or develop their career within the Security or Hospitality sectors. We’re an approved Security Industry Authority (SIA) training provider, we are quality assured, and approved under Trident / Laser Learning Awards and the Institute of Conflict Management (ICM), which together means the training you receive on our courses is second to none. With a combined operational experience of over 200 years between our training team, we don’t just talk the talk! You will only receive the very best, up to date, knowledge, skills and training, ensuring you’re both properly prepared for any course exams, and for your actual role. The operational experience of our trainers brings the content of our courses to life, providing you with real life examples and realistic scenarios that you may encounter in your role. One major advantage of using real-world experienced trainers is, they can deliver course content from the prospective and understanding of somebody who has actually done the job, rather than someone who has just read the book. Skills For Jobs takes the responsibility of delivering appropriate and realistic training very seriously. This is evidenced through the development and approval of our own Physical Intervention training system ‘Shield PI’, quality assured by the Institute of Conflict Management (ICM) and approved by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) for delivery as part of the Door Supervisor SIA licence linked training (Module 4 at Level 2). We’re pleased to boast, due to the high standards of our training, it’s recognised SfJ generally produces a higher level of candidate. As such, we work in association with a number of local and national employment agencies who recognise our expertise, and regularly frequent our courses as guests, speaking with learners regarding employment opportunities available with them. They are eager to interview anyone who has completed their training through Skills For Jobs.

Very professional training with Aegis. Very friendly tutor, his name is Sid. He explain every thing in a simple way. He even gave more information to help us get extra skills for the reality at work in the future. Very good and clean training place. I just got my results and passed first time. Now I'm going to apply for the SIA license. Definitely I will recommend this place for friends and family who want to get security license.

Great Training Provider

I completed my Trident Level 2 Award in Door Supervision (QCF) with Aegis and I have to give them a 5 star review because the company were very easy to deal with, the trainers were very knowledgeable with lots of "real world" experience to help relate topic matters to. The physical skills were also very good and well delivered. Great value for money and the training must work as I passed all the exams first time. Would definitely recommend.

Door supervisor Level 2.

Door supervisor Level 2.
I have recently completed a 4 day course in Broadstairs, Kent 04/18, to obtain my level 2 Door Supervision Course with AEGIS,
The Instructor , Maurice Hines was exceptional ! He explained everything in detail, and even though we where a group of 8 trainees, every step of the course felt personal, The instruction and demonstration was fantastic,
with Maurice taking time with each and every person, He was a very approachable bloke , and extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of the training.
I can absolutely recommend AEGIS , A very professional , well established company with exceptional staff , even the ongoing advice and information is continued ! Anybody requiring any training or qualifications to further their career !! AEGIS are the people to contact !! I for one am definitely going to be attending more courses through AEGIS for my own further development.
10 out of 10 !! They tick all the boxes !!

I can not thank AEGIS and in particular MAURICE HINES for the Training and Development I received !!
I shall definitely be intouch soon about further courses that suit my requirements.

Excellent Door Supervisor Training Course In Bournemouth !

I attended the four day Aegis Skills Door Supervisor training course at the Phoebe Centre in Bournemouth,Thursday 12th to Sunday 15th April 2018.The centre itself is located next to Kings Park and has plenty of parking on the road close by and is equipped with nice classrooms,a fully equipped kitchen with microwave,fridge,cups,cutlery (tea,coffee and biscuits kindly supplied by Rob Knowles,Aegis skills Director),a lounge area for lunch breaks and a spacious gym for the physical intervention training.The first two days were led by trainer Tommy Tucker,a very experienced and excellent communicator who delivers the training backed up with years of first hand knowledge and experience gained in the military and security industry.The 3rd and 4th day was led by trainer and director of Aegis skills Rob Knowles who does the physical intervention training.Rob is a very professional trainer who also has years of first hand experience working in the security industry and delivers the training in a very understandable,motivational and helpful way.Both Tommy and Rob take the training very seriously and train you in a way that helps equip you to carry out your security role in a professional and confident way.I found both Tommy and Rob very approachable,friendly and ready to answer any questions also Rob has been amazingly helpful to me personally from the moment i first contacted him to enquire about the security training right through to my many emails iv sent him since the course regarding the SIA application process.Off the back of the training even before i have recieved my SIA licence i have recieved 4 security job offers after attending interviews and mentioning i had completed the Aegis Skills Door Supervisor training.I have this week recieved my Door Supervisor Certificates and im so happy and proud to have completed and passed the course.I would Highly Recommend the Aegis Skills Door Supervisor training course, not only did i enjoy it,i found it challenging,it built my confidence,i gained helpful knowledge,it fully equipped me for my future in the security industry but also the training recieved such as the conflict management is very useful in my personal life.Rob Knowles and Tommy Tucker the trainers are a credit to the security industry and i would publicly like to say a BIG THANK YOU to them both for the most excellent Door Supervisor training course ! ! !

Southend Ambleside Social Club

Southend Ambleside Social Club - Instructor Maurice Hines - April 19-22nd

Course by Aegis Skills Ltd
Booking was easy and communication between Company & myself was excellent.

Maurice quickly put everyone at ease and proved intuitive to individual needs. The group bonded very quickly under Maurice's leadership and no one could fault his teaching of skills and his attentiveness to make sure you got each part correct.

Although there was a great deal to learn, it's not just a matter of being a tough guy, Maurice explained and demonstrated at great length. It is after all a job of protecting not only the public but yourself. Well versed in both the law and the physical skills needed Maurice proved not only knowledgeable but a fantastic teacher instilling us with confidence.

Excellent course, fantastic instructor who was more than capable. Would highly recommend both Maurice Hines & Aegis Skills Ltd

Wow, thanks Carl. Really appreciate your time to review. Yes, Maurice is certainly one of the best tutors and we are proud to have him on the team :)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The training I received was honestly top notch.

The training was truly invaluabe and was delivered with great quality and service.
I have just found out that I have passed the Door Supervision training and feel wholly confident in myself carrying out my future role to an impeccable standard.

The first 2 days were spent with Tommy and the latter 2 days with Rob. They are both very approachable and great at teaching the information in ways for you to understand, ingest and retain no matter your learning style. They have a wealth of experience as well as knowledge with their stories being token gems.

The level 1 Aegis Physical Intervention course was great fun whilst being highly informative and has helped my confidence a lot.

I would definitely recommend this company with utmost confidence.
