Video Security Systems Technician
The program track includes a sequence of four levels of certification, based on the complexity of the systems being installed/serviced. NICET bases the content of the levels largely on a system classification scheme involving three system types — "A", "B", and "C". Certification at a particular level is achieved by demonstrating knowledge of and experience in the work associated with certain types of systems.
The following levels are now available for testing and certification:
Level I — In training; Assists on VSS Projects
Level II — Installs Type A Systems (See Systems Classifications)
Level III — Installs Types A and B Systems (See Systems Classifications)
Level IV — Installs Types A, B, and C Systems (See Systems Classifications)
