Level 2 Award for Door Supervisors in the Private Security Industry (Top Up)

Course Duration: 2 days

Aim: Any business selling alcohol, including small pubs, retailers, large nightclubs, cafés, restaurants, hotels and sports facilities may need trained security staff qualified as door supervisors who hold an SIA licence.

Door supervisors are often the first point of contact between many businesses and members of the public. It is important therefore that they are effectively trained and meet legal requirements in what can be a challenging environment.

The Level 2 Award for Working as a Door Supervisor within the Private Security Industry Top Up is aimed at learners who want to re-apply for a licence from the Security Industry Authority (SIA) to work legally as a door supervisor. The course is designed for learners who currently hold a licence from the Security Industry Authority (SIA) to work as a door supervisor and need to be brought up to date with the new licence-linked qualification requirements.

Course Outline:

Unit 01 Terror Threat Awareness in the private security industry
Unit 02 Using equipment as a Door Supervisor in the private security industry
Unit 03 Application of Physical Intervention in the private security industry
