Aegis Connect Global certifies organisations that meet international standards of excellence in security training and employment. Your certificates carry the ACG seal โ verifiable by QR worldwide.
The ACG Certification Program recognises organisations operating at the highest level of the international security sector. There are two distinct certifications, each with its own QR-verifiable seal.
For organisations that deliver security, tactical, medical, or professional development training. Your course certificates will carry the dual seal โ your logo and the ACG Verified Training mark โ verifiable by QR in our global database.
For security companies, PMSCs, and corporate security departments that demonstrate good practices in the hiring, verification, and treatment of security professionals. The ACG Recognized Employer seal signals to operators that your organisation meets international standards.
The ACG certification process follows the same model as leading international bodies โ NAEMT for TCCC, AHA for CPR. The training provider delivers, ACG certifies. Simple, verifiable, internationally recognised.
Contact us at info@aegisconnectglobal.com with a brief description of your organisation, services, and current certifications. Our team will respond within 3 business days with the requirements applicable to your specific profile.
Submit the required documentation โ instructor qualifications, course syllabi, facilities evidence, and any existing certifications (ISO, national licences, international accreditations). ACG reviews and may request a virtual audit with your team.
The ACG certification committee reviews your application. Typical review time: 5โ10 business days. You will receive written notification of the outcome, including any conditions or areas for improvement.
Upon approval, you receive your ACG certification code, QR seal, and brand assets. For training providers, your course certificates will now carry the dual-brand ACG seal. Each graduate is registered in our verification database.
When a student completes a certified course, you submit their details โ full name, passport/ID number, course, date, and result โ via email or our platform portal. ACG issues the dual-branded certificate with QR within 24โ48 hours.
Certification is valid for 12 months and renewable annually. ACG conducts a simplified review at renewal to ensure continued compliance with our standards.
Requirements vary depending on the type of certification and the specific profile of your organisation. The following represents the baseline that all applicants must meet. Additional requirements or reduced requirements may apply based on your existing accreditations.
Items in lighter text are optional but positively influence the assessment and may reduce certification costs. The presence of ISO certifications, UN recognition, or multiple ACG-verified instructors may qualify your organisation for a reduced or waived certification fee.
The certification fee is not fixed โ it is determined individually based on the profile of your organisation, the scope of the audit required, and your existing accreditations. We do not believe in one-size-fits-all pricing for something this important.

ACG certification is an international professional recognition, not a national regulatory licence. It operates similarly to NAEMT's endorsement of TCCC providers or ASIS International's certification framework โ it signals quality, independence, and international credibility. It does not replace, but complements, any applicable national licences.
Yes, and in most cases existing national or international accreditation reduces the scope and cost of the ACG audit significantly. We verify that your existing standards meet or exceed our baseline and add the ACG layer of international recognition and QR verification.
From initial inquiry to certification issuance: typically 2โ4 weeks for straightforward cases. Organisations with ISO certifications or existing international accreditation may complete the process in under 2 weeks. Organisations requiring a more detailed audit may take up to 6 weeks.
Yes. For high-volume providers, we offer a batch submission process via our platform portal or a structured spreadsheet format. Each student is processed individually but submissions can be made in groups. Typical processing time per batch: 24โ48 hours.
If certification lapses, the ACG seal on new certificates will be suspended. Certificates already issued remain valid and verifiable in our database. Reinstatement requires a simplified renewal audit. Certificates issued during a lapsed period will not carry the ACG seal until certification is renewed.
