Core disciplines in the register include video surveillance systems, access control, intruder and hold-up alarms and fire alarms.
The CTSP application process is conducted online and costs £25, with a £50 annual registration fee payable upon successful admittance to the Register.
The registrant becomes part of a certified professional network and has the right to use post-nominals, for example, John Smith CTSP as well as use of CTSP logo on promotional materials.
