Course Description:

Completing the Door Supervisor Training Course is for anyone who wants to work as a Security Officer or Door Supervisor in the UK.

Our course which is run over 6-days contains all the skills & knowledge a candidate needs to pass the oral, physical & written exams to then apply for an SIA Licence.

It is now a mandatory requirement that ALL front-line staff hold a valid Emergency First Aid at Work Certificate (1 day) – If you require this, please use the link including the EFAW course. Note: It is illegal to carry out third party security duties without a SIA License.

How does working as a Door Supervisor vs Security Guard vary and what are the benefits?

A Door Supervisor Licence allows a candidate to work as both a Door Supervisor and a Security Guard, while  holding a Security Guard Licence will only allow the candidate to work in a Security Guarding role.
