THE REGISTER of Chartered Security Professionals has announced that the Association of Security Consultants (ASC) has joined the register of licensed organisations. The news marks an important milestone in the continued growth and development of the Chartered Security Professional (CSyP) designation.
Organisational licensing formally recognises and supports the CSyP designation, reinforcing the highest standards of professionalism, competence and ethical practice within the security profession. The ASC’s appointment as a licensed organisation reflects its clear commitment to professional excellence and supporting the development of security practitioners across the industry.
The CSyP designation represents the ‘gold standard’ for security professionals, recognising individuals who’ve demonstrated strategic leadership, professional influence and a sustained commitment to Continuing Professional Development.
Commenting on the announcement, Ian Dyson CBE QPM DL, chair of the Chartered Security Professionals Registration Authority, explained: “We’re delighted to welcome the ASC as the third licensed organisation of the Register of Chartered Security Professionals. The ASC’s commitment to professional standards aligns strongly with the values of the Register. We look forward to the ASC’s active participation in supporting the continued growth of the Register and the advancement of professionalism across the security industry.”
Strengthening collaboration
This partnership further strengthens collaboration between CSyPs and organisations that share a commitment to raising standards, enhancing credibility and promoting Chartered status within the profession.
ASC chair Gary Thomas observed: “As the industry continues to evolve, expectations placed on those parties providing independent advice have grown. There’s a need for consultants to continue upskilling themselves and be able to evidence their competence through demonstrable experience. By becoming a licensed organisation of the Register of Chartered Security Professionals, we’re reinforcing our commitment to strengthening credibility and trust across the profession, while also encouraging more practitioners to pursue Chartered recognition.”
