This qualification provides terrorism protection awareness for staff working in, or supporting, venues, sites and organisations. It is designed to help learners contribute to organisational preparedness by understanding the terrorism threat context, recognising common attack methods, understanding the key requirements of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 at an awareness level, maintaining vigilance and reporting concerns appropriately, and understanding immediate response actions. It supports staff to play an effective “internal champion” role by providing timely observations and information to the responsible person and/or colleagues with more formal counter-terrorism and protective security responsibilities.

No single course can make an organisation fully compliant with Martyn’s Law. Compliance depends on understanding which duties apply to your premises or event and implementing proportionate procedures, responsibilities and protective measures.
FGH Training’s SFJ Awards Level 2 course supports this process by giving employees the awareness needed to recognise threats, report concerns and respond appropriately. It should form part of a wider approach that includes site-specific planning, staff instructions, emergency procedures, regular reviews and, where appropriate, additional protective security measures. Government guidance confirms that requirements vary according to the premises or event.
Learners may wish to progress to the Level 3 Counter-Terrorism Protective Security and Preparedness course, which FGH Training also delivers.
The Level 3 Award builds on awareness-level knowledge and supports learners to develop a deeper understanding of counter-terrorism risk, protective security and preparedness. It is designed to support those who have, or may support, more formal responsibilities in relation to terrorism protection, preparedness planning and protective security within their organisation.
