SIA Door Supervisor

Anyone wanting to work as a door supervisor in the UK, needs a licence to practise issued by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) and one of the things you need to apply for a licence is to have passed a recognised door supervision qualification. The Award in Door Supervision is designed for those who wish to work in the industry. Endorsed by the SIA and regulated by Ofqual, the qualification is awarded to learners who successfully complete four units:

• Working in the Private Security Industry
• Working as a Door Supervisor
• Conflict Management for the Private Security Industry
• Physical Intervention Skills for the Private Security Industry

This qualification follows the SIA’s new specification and the unit structure reduces overlap between subject areas making it easier for learners to gain qualifications for additional sectors (CCTV, Security Guarding etc) as they will only need to sit the additional units.
