You need to apply for the 1AC security licence through the NSW Security Licence Enforcement Directorate.

Enrolment

Unfortunately, if you are on a Student Visa, you are not able to complete a security course with Multisec or any other security training organisation in NSW.

If you are eligible to apply, then you can contact Multisec Training to book a time to enrol. You then attend our training rooms and fill out an enrolment form and complete a Literacy, Language and Numeracy test.

Once you successfully complete the LLN test, you will be enrolled into the Security Licence Course.
