Common questions

Which course should I do first?
Manager — Land. This add-on covers only what changes when you manage a guarding contract at a port.
Does it make my agency approved to work at ports?
No. Approval to provide security at a port depends on the port's own rules and the authorities. The course explains where an agency fits and how to support the port facility security officer.
Can I buy it in the India edition?
Not yet. It goes on sale in the India edition once its India country card has been checked.
Is this an official licence or certification?
No. Guarding.Tech is a private training provider. A course builds knowledge and readiness and ends with a Record of Completion. It is not a licence, a regulator's certificate or an accreditation, and it is not endorsed by any government agency.
Can I try it before I pay?
Yes. The first lesson of each course is open to read, with no sign-up.
How do I get a Record of Completion?
Finish the lessons, then pass the course’s final assessment with 70% or more. Your Record carries a number and a QR code that anyone can check on the verify page. It shows only your name (or initials), the course, the date and its status.
How long do I keep access?
Paid access lasts 12 months from the day you buy. You can study at your own pace and come back to any lesson during that time. Your Record of Completion stays verifiable after access ends.
Who sells the course, and how is tax handled?
In the Australia edition the seller is Vanaranya LLC. Tax, where it applies, is calculated at checkout from your billing country.
Can I buy seats for my team?
Yes. Agencies and sites can buy seats for their guards, assign courses and see progress and results. Larger teams get a discount. See For organisations.
