Elevating the standards of the Professional Security Training
Greetings and welcome to the Security Trainers Association Inc. (STA), the premier organization dedicated to fostering excellence in the security training industry. Established in Victoria in 2004, the STA has been at the forefront of facilitating meaningful collaboration among Registered Training Organizations (RTOs) to set a high-caliber agenda for training and assessment.
Our History: A Commitment to Excellence and Resilience
Initially, the STA was deeply committed to working with regulators, industry stakeholders, unions, and skill bodies to cultivate a robust Professional Security Industry. Despite early successes, the association faced challenges, including the unfortunate passing of our President, which led to a temporary hiatus.
However, the STA was resilient. Reformed in 2008, the association has been continuously active for over six years. I have had the privilege of being actively involved since its relaunch and remain committed to ensuring the association’s long-term success.
We have successfully developed comprehensive training resources in the fields of security and investigations. These resources have not only met but often exceeded industry standards, thereby contributing to the betterment of the security training landscape.
The STA maintains a constructive relationship with industry regulators and is actively engaged in initiatives aimed at enhancing the quality standards expected from a Professional Security Industry.
Membership in the STA offers numerous advantages, including:
