Level 2 Award in Door Supervision

SIA Approved Qualification - Door Supervisor

Historically the most popular SIA licence held is the Door Supervisor. This is because as well as being able to work in pubs and clubs, it also allows you to undertake all of the activities covered by an SIA Security licence.

Additionally it covers working in Event Security (e.g. at the large music festivals that run throughout the summer months). This means that one SIA licence enables you to work in three sectors of the industry, so maximising your job opportunities.

To obtain the SIA Door Supervisor licence you will need to pass a licence-linked qualification called the Level 2 Award in Door Supervision. This will involve attending a 30 hour course and passing three exams. You will also need to provide suitable identification and pass a criminality check.

There are significant overlaps with Security Guarding so you will be well prepared should you choose to work in that sector.

We run courses from a wide number of locations throughout the UK. Check out our Course Finder at the top of this page to find out where, when and how much.
