Level 2 Award - Upskilling Door Supervisors


SIA Approved Qualification

1 DAY

£84.00 INCLUDING VAT, STUDY BOOKS, EXAMINATIONS AND CERTIFICATE

STAND ALONE - Safety Awareness for Door Supervisors - £42.00 INCLUDING VAT, STUDY BOOKS, EXAMINATIONS AND CERTIFICATE (THIS WILL ONLY TAKE ONE HOUR AND IS FOR PEOPLE WHO ALREADY HAVE A QCF (OFQUAL) QUALIFICATION IN PHYSICAL INTERVENTION)

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 to deliver the new content as part of the course.

How Does This Affect You?

In 2012 the SIA announced that all Door Supervisors who do not have the Physical Intervention qualification would need to have additional training before being able to renew their licences.

This new condition started on 4th February 2013.

To ensure your qualification meets the SIA's NEW standards, you just need to do the Level 2 Award for Upskilling Door Supervisors.

What is involved?

The new qualification consists of the following two units:

Physical Intervention Skills for the Private Security Industry – Assessed by both a practical test and a written 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 exam, 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.

What if I have a Physical Intervention qualification?

If you have obtained a Physical Intervention qualification since your original Door Supervisor course you would need to provide a certificate issued by an Awarding Body which includes the letters ‘QCF’ in the name of the qualification.

Provided that the above certificate is acceptable, you would only need to pass the Safety Awareness unit in order to gain the Upskilling Door Supervisors qualification.
