What this means where you work

The skills are the same everywhere. The legal and licensing rules differ by country, so each course carries a country card that follows your edition.

Working as a private guard at an Indian airport

◐ Partial coverage
About this card
The Act and the security rules are in force. Replacement security rules have been drafted but are not yet in force, and the content of the BCAS guard training course is not public, so this card is Partial. Checked on 10 October 2026.
What you must do
  1. Your agency needs two things: its PSARA licence and a BCAS security clearance.
  2. You do only the security duties assigned to you. Your post orders are your list. The Government has told Parliament that agency staff do "non-core" tasks under the CASO. We found no official public list of those tasks.
  3. The CASO's officers direct your security work. The airport operator handles administration.
  4. You may not carry a weapon, screen passengers or cabin bags, or take over the CASO's duties. The security rules give a private guard no special power to arrest or search.
  5. You wear your aerodrome entry permit above the waist, never lend it, and hand it back when told.
  6. Required training is separate from this course. The Ministry's Annual Report 2025 says a BCAS order of 2 May 2024 set a six-day AVSEC Foundation Course for agency staff. The order is not public. Ask your employer for the current rule.

Common questions

Which course should I do first?
Manager — Land. This add-on covers only what changes when you manage a guarding contract at an airport.
Does it make my agency approved to work at airports?
No. Security clearance and approval at an airport depend on the aviation security authority and the airport. The course explains where an agency fits and how to keep clearances and training records in order.
Are any modules optional?
Yes. One module is optional and is not tested in the final assessment. The course page marks it.
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.
Can I read the lessons in Hindi?
Yes. In the India edition you can switch a lesson to Hindi. The Hindi text is machine translated and checked by an AI reviewer, not yet by a human reviewer, so the English original is always one tap away.
Who sells the course, and how is tax handled?
In the India edition the seller is VSVSV (Vidhi Sangat Vidyut Saksya Vinaya) Tech Private Limited. Prices include GST and you get a GST tax invoice.
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.
