However, this visionary step inadvertently paved the way for the emergence of so-called \u2018Online Academies\u2019 that lack professional validity, are devoid of proper training, and operate solely with commercial concerns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">These entities have defrauded tens of thousands of individuals in critical fields such as <strong>\u2018Close Protection, Municipal Police, and Private Security\u2019<\/strong>\u2014which require real field experience and practical training\u2014by issuing certificates with no actual validity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Corporate Reputation and Strategic Differentiation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Our federation has never allowed its name to be associated with such qualified fraudulent activities or with so-called \u2018certificate traders.\u2019 Based on the principle that what truly matters is not \u2018university approval\u2019 but <strong>UYKSEF\u2019s international accreditation and signature<\/strong>, we have unilaterally terminated our protocol with the relevant university.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Legislative Efforts and Legal Victory<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Following applications to our federation by hundreds of individuals who were victimized under the guise of so-called \u2018distance learning,\u2019 we took action. Within the scope of our <strong>proposal for amendments to Law No. 5188 on Private Security<\/strong>, we submitted our solution proposals to the relevant authorities of our state in order to prevent such fraudulent activities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">This strategic move quickly yielded results; the <strong>General Directorate of Security (EGM)<\/strong>, in line with our requests, sent an official letter to the <strong>Council of Higher Education (Y\u00d6K)<\/strong>, ensuring the immediate termination of courses such as \u2018Close Protection, Security, Municipal Police, etc.\u2019 conducted within universities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Review the Official Announcement:<\/strong> &gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.egm.gov.tr\/ozelguvenlik\/faaliyet-izin-belgesi-almadan-ozel-guvenlik-ile-ilgili-sertifika-veren-sirketler-hakkinda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EGM \u2013 Announcement on Companies Issuing Certificates Without an Operating License<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Important Public Warning and Professional Criticism<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">If someone tries to sell you a Close Protection certificate labeled as <strong>\u2018Notarized,\u2019 \u2018e-Government Approved,\u2019 or \u2018University Approved,\u2019<\/strong> be aware that this is a deception!<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">However, one crucial fact must be emphasized: individuals who fail to understand that the profession of \u2018Close Protection\u2019 cannot be learned through distance education, and who purchase certificates without attending any physical training, are just as complicit in this <strong>fraud<\/strong> as those who sell these documents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">We approach applications submitted to our federation with such complaints with great care and scrutiny.
