IAPPA online Academy

At IAPPA, we offer a range of courses at all security levels. We place great emphasis on realistic and proven courses. These cover all levels of the subject, from introductory to specialization courses. The IAPPA Online Academy is an effective additional offer for emergency services personnel who wish to receive further training or certification in various security topics. With our offer you often have the choice between a regular course, which you complete and receive a certificate of attendance at the end, or you want to be certified and receive a printed certificate. Then you complete the course and have to answer questions at the end of each chapter. Once you have successfully completed everything, you will receive your certificate at home. 

Please note: An online course never replaces on-site training, but it's a good start!
