Certification of Aviation Security Instructors

This document sets out the principles and processes for the initial and re-certification of UK Department for Transport (DfT) Aviation Security Instructors.

In the UK the successful certification of an Instructor results in the issue of a unique Certificated Instructor Number (CIN), which only holds validity for training under the UK National Aviation Security programme (UK NASP). Certification is valid for a maximum of 5 years, at which point the Instructor will require re-certification should they wish to continue performing the role.
