SIA Training – Door Supervisor course information
The UK security industry is thriving, with demand increasing annually for licensed security professionals. It’s an exciting career that can take you places and almost instantly boost your earning potential.
If you’re looking to enter the security industry, we’d definitely recommend the Door Supervisor training course. The course gives you the foundational knowledge you need to get working in security. Your training instructor goes over everything you need to know, from best practices and your legal rights to health and safety.
SIA Training - Security Officer Training course information
Security Officer training is budget-friendly and quick to complete. The course is over 4 days and allows you to work within various roles such as in retail, key holding and static and manned positions. However, we do recommend taking the extra 2 days to begin your security career by taking the Door Supervisor training instead. This will allow you to be qualified to work in more roles, including events which sell alcohol, bars and clubs. Watch the video below to find out the difference between security guard training and door supervisor training.
SIA Training – CCTV course information
After joining the security industry, many professionals choose to progress up the career ladder. This 3-day course is the perfect way to open new doors and increase your earnings. A CCTV or Security Operations Manager with CCTV Operator training can earn from £18-25 per hour. That puts you on track for a monthly take-home pay of up to £4,000 or £48,000 per year.
SIA Security Careers with an SIA Licence
Moving up and getting ahead in the security sector is easy. The first step is taking the right training course. Most people choose the 6-day Door Supervisor Course, because it unlocks the most job opportunities for newly-trained security professionals.
After a period to gain some experience, you may decide that you want to progress. Many people with experience become a head of security, where you’ll be responsible for conduct, motivation, and management of a team of people. You can also move up the ladder by taking further courses such as the CCTV and Close Protection courses.
In fact, there are other sideway career options too. You could become a training instructor to teach SIA courses.
Start working in SIA Security Jobs
Once you have done your training and received your licence, you are ready for your first assignment. We recommend looking for jobs online on jobsites such as Reed. You can also find work through the GuardPass by Get Licensed. There wasn’t an app for Security Workers, so we built one, the only one. This can be downloaded on the Apple Store and on Google Play.
We're building a ton of exciting features in the GuardPass app including a job board for security professionals. Some features are in beta and will be available soon.
