Course programme
Introduction
Originally Physical Intervention was not part of the SIA Door Supervisor course, but in 2010 the SIA changed the content of the qualification to include a Physical Intervention unit.
This became available to training providers in June 2010, and on 1st September 2010 it became compulsory for all training providers, like D.S.T.O., to deliver the new content as part of the qualification.
How Does This Effect You?
In 2012 the SIA announced that all Door Supervisors who had taken the ‘old’ style course would need to have additional training before being able to renew their licences. This new condition starts from 4th February 2013. To ensure your qualification meets the SIA's NEW standard, you just need to do the Level 2 Award for Upskilling Door Supervisors.
So, if you trained AFTER 1st September 2010 you DO NOT need to Upskill, as P.I was included.
If you trained between June and September 2010
you need to check that your qualification includes P.I., and if not, you will be required to Upskill.
If you trained BEFORE 1st June 2010 you
DEFINITELY need to top up your training with us unless you hold a QCF endorsed PI qualification.
There are two parts to the new content - Physical Intervention and Safety Awareness. You must have both to renew your licence.
DONT BE MIS-SOLD BY OTHER COMPANIES-What is involved?
The new qualification consists of the following two units:
- Physical Intervention Skills for the Private Security Industry; assessed by a practical test and a written True/False test which is set by the Awarding Body and marked by the tutor.
- Safety Awareness for Door Supervisors; assessed by a 10-question multiple-choice examination which is set and marked by the Awarding Body.
- The Physical Intervention is exactly the same module as taken on the ‘new’ Award in Door Supervision qualification. This is delivered as a 7.5 hour, tutor-lead course covering basic disengagement, escorting and holding techniques.
- The Safety Awareness unit involves reading a workbook which covers three topics: Counter Terrorism; First Aid Awareness; and Dealing with Children and Young People.
Who needs to do the Upskilling course?
If your current licence expires after 4th February 2012 and you did your original Door Supervisor course before June 2010 and you don’t have a Physical Intervention qualification, you will need to pass the Upskilling qualification before you can reapply for your SIA licence.
If your current licence expires after 4th February 2012 and you did your original Door Supervisor course in June, July or August 2010 and you don’t have a Physical Intervention qualification, you may need to pass the Upskilling qualification before you can reapply for your SIA licence. Check your original certificate(s) to see which qualification you obtained.
If your current licence expires after 4th February 2012 and you did your original Door Supervisor course after 1st September 2010 you will not need to take the Upskilling course.
