Who needs the refresher course?
The SIA requires Door Supervisors to complete refresher training before renewing their licence. The course brings your knowledge up to date with the current standards, so you can keep working without a gap in your licence.
What does it cover?
- Updates to the law and good practice in the security industry
- Terror threat awareness and how to respond to an attack
- Physical intervention: refreshing safe, legal techniques
- Emergency First Aid at Work. You'll need a valid first aid certificate, and we can provide this if yours has expired.
What to bring
- Your current SIA licence
- Two forms of ID from the SIA's accepted list
- Your First Aid certificate, if it's still valid
Don't leave it too late
Licence renewals can take several weeks to process, so plan your refresher training well before your current licence expires. Call us and we'll help you choose a date.
