How it works

From application to PSIRA-approved result

Every learner follows the same process. Ivy Black reviews each application, allocates training dates and records results — nothing in the process happens automatically.

  1. Step 1
    Stage 01

    Choose your programme

    Review the training grades and entry requirements, and speak to our team if you are unsure which level suits you.

  2. Step 2
    Stage 02

    Apply and upload documents

    Submit an application online as an individual or on behalf of a company, and attach the supporting documents you have available.

  3. Step 3
    Stage 03

    Ivy Black reviews eligibility

    Our team checks your documents and eligibility, and comes back to you if anything further is needed. Submitting an application does not confirm a place.

  4. Step 4
    Stage 04

    Full payment confirmed

    Once your application is approved, payment is arranged and confirmed by our team before training is scheduled.

  5. Step 5
    Stage 05

    Ivy Black allocates your training date

    Training dates are allocated by Ivy Black. Learners do not book their own dates.

  6. Step 6
    Stage 06

    Attend training and assessment

    Training takes place in person at our Hillcrest academy, where attendance and completion are recorded.

  7. Step 7
    Stage 07

    Result and PSIRA approval

    Assessments are marked by Ivy Black and submitted to PSIRA. Your result is final only once PSIRA approval is received — there is no fixed turnaround time.

Good to know

  • Submitting an application is a request to enrol. It is not a confirmation of a place on a course.
  • Training dates are allocated by Ivy Black. Learners do not choose or book their own dates.
  • Learners must be at least 18 years old, and all training is delivered in person in Hillcrest.
  • A result is recorded by our team after assessment. Certificates are issued by Ivy Black as a separate step, not automatically.
