  • PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving

What's in it for you

  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): driver's licence and ID copies, PSIRA registration certificate showing armed response plus firearm competency certificate.
