The Door Supervisor Training Course is essential in obtaining your SIA Door Supervisor Licence. The Level 2 Door Supervisor Training course is an accredited qualification which has been developed to meet the requirements of the Security Industry Authority (SIA).This allows you to work in the private security industry as a Door Supervisor or Security Officer. 
The training is based on the relevant SIA Specifications for Learning and Qualifications providing the necessary skills and knowledge for those who wish to apply for an SIA licence and work as a Door Supervisor. 
The SIA Door Supervisor Licence equips you to work at licensed premises, bars, clubs, pubs, restaurants, warehouses, retail outlets, shops, shopping centres, office buildings and in a wide variety of roles including static guarding, manned guarding, key holding etc.
If you are looking to work in the Security Industry as a Security Guard or a Door Supervisor, this is the right course for you. 

NOTE: We highly recommend the SIA Door Supervisor Training Course over the SIA Security Guarding Training Course. While a Licenced Door Supervisor can work as a Security Guard, a licenced Security Guard is unable to work as a Door Supervisor.
