The SIA is changing the qualifications needed for an SIA licence. This follows a review of the licence-linked qualifications.

Today (Wednesday, 02 September 2020) the Security Industry Authority (SIA) is launching a public consultation on top-up training for SIA-licensed door supervisors and security guards.

The top-up training for door supervisors and security guards will include key elements of the new content that the SIA is introducing to licence-linked qualifications in April 2021.

The SIA has developed top-up training to make sure current Door Supervisor and Security Guard licence holders have the same basic skills and knowledge as new entrants achieving the updated qualifications.
