E-Learning modules

The Institute of Licensing and the Commission have worked together to produce some gambling e-learning modules:

• Gaming machines  - three separate modules which cover the various types of gaming machines, the physical components and signage requirements and how to deal with non-compliant machines

• Inspection powers and inspection preparation – designed to help co-regulators familiarise themselves with their powers to enter and inspect gambling premises and the preparation to undertake before conducting an inspection of any gambling premises.

• Introduction to inspecting a betting premises – aimed at helping co-regulators improve their understanding of what to check when conducting an inspection of a betting premises - both inside and outside the premises.

These modules can be accessed by anybody via the IOL website,and all are CPD accredited. Once on the website simply click on the ‘e-learning’ tab on the top right, then log in if you have an existing account, or request a log in via membership@instituteoflicensing.org to get started.

We also have several refresher modules for licensing officers which compliance managers can deliver at licensing meetings. Topics include machines, permits, money laundering, poker.  If you are interested in receiving such training, please contact your compliance manager.
