COURSE INFORMATION

The course provides learners with an understanding of the principles of access control systems, their purpose, design, monitoring and management. It has been developed to enable learners to have the opportunity to develop an understanding of access control systems, their purpose, design, control, testing and management.

The learner will understand the principles of access control systems and how such systems are designed. The learner will explore the various measures supporting access control including physical barriers, identification devices and the hardware and software employed in such systems.

The learner will review the power supply and cabling considerations when designing systems and understand how access control systems are tested and managed.

KEY CONTENT

  • Describe the purpose of access control systems
  • Establish access control policies
  • Risk assessment when designing access control systems
  • Determine access points for different levels of authorised entries
  • Describe types of doors and gates used in access control systems
  • Describe types of locks used in access control systems
  • Assign types of access control systems to be used
  • Explain the use of code and card identification in access control systems
  • Determine configuration and settings of access control systems
  • Monitor project implementation of access control systems and ensure that site acceptance tests meet operational requirements
  • Explain power supply considerations in access control systems
  • Read and interpret access control system audit reports
  • Detect and report security equipment fault
  • Review and access efficiency of current access control equipment

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • The learner will be able to form access control policies for an organization, after taking into account the levels of access control required in an organisation, its access control procedures and the characteristics and limitations of the organisation’s access control equipment
  • The learner will be able to map access points for different levels of authorized entries, after taking into account the levels of access control required in an organisation, its access control procedures and the characteristics and limitations of the organisation’s access control equipment
  • The learner will be able to evaluate the types of access control systems to be used based on an organisation’s access control procedures, levels of access control required and the characteristics and limitations of access control equipment
  • The learner will be able to explain the configuration and settings of access control based on an organisation’s access control procedures, levels of access control required and the type of access control equipment that an organisation has deployed
  • The learner will be able to implement and monitor project implementation of access control systems and ensure that site acceptance tests meet operational requirements based on the access control equipment used
  • The learner will be able to read and interpret access control system audit reports based on the organisation’s access control equipment, access control procedures and levels of access control
  • The learner will be able to detect and report an access control equipment fault based on the characteristics and limitation of an organisation’s access control equipment as well as the variables affecting the type of access control systems
  • The learner will be able to review and assess the efficiency of an organisation’s access control equipment through its access control procedures, levels of access control required, and types of access control equipment deployed
  • The learner will be able to research and recommend new access control equipment for deployment based on an organisation’s access control procedures, characteristics and limitations of existing access control equipment deployed and the levels of access control required

MODE OF LEARNING

Primary mode of learning for this course is Face-to-Face Classroom session. This will be supplemented with interactive Practical sessions which serves to connect newly-learned knowledge and skills with the realities of the workplace and jobs.
