The Door Supervisor Refresher Training is a mandatory course for existing SIA Door Supervisor Licence holders who need to renew their licence. The SIA requires that all licence holders complete this training as part of the renewal process, demonstrating that they remain competent, current, and safe to operate in the security industry.
This is not a repeat of the full Door Supervisor course. Instead, it is a focused update that covers the latest developments in safety techniques, legislation, and professional practice — giving you everything you need to renew with confidence.
If you need the full qualification instead, see our Door Supervisor Course.
Security is a constantly evolving industry. Physical intervention methods are regularly reviewed to reduce harm and liability. UK licensing laws are updated to reflect new case law and government policy. Venue safety expectations continue to rise in response to real-world incidents.
The SIA requires refresher training to ensure that every licensed door supervisor in the UK is operating at a current standard — not relying on knowledge that may be years out of date. Without completing the refresher, you cannot legally renew your licence and continue working.
When to book: Most professionals recommend booking your refresher within the final 12 months of your current SIA licence. Don't leave it to the last moment to avoid any gap in your licence coverage. Learn more about SIA renewal.
Six key areas, all essential to maintaining safe and professional door supervision practice.
Refine legally compliant techniques, including escorting, disengagement, restrictive intervention, and managing high-risk situations. Special focus on minimising positional asphyxia risks.
Updated strategies for identifying aggression triggers early, using verbal/non-verbal communication to reduce tension, and managing intoxicated or vulnerable individuals.
Duty of care toward vulnerable people, including those who are intoxicated, under the influence of substances, victims of harassment, or experiencing emotional distress.
Refresher on fire evacuation, first aid awareness, emergency communication, and working effectively with emergency services during a serious incident.
Coverage of current UK laws regarding use of force, self-defence, health and safety obligations, GDPR, and venue licensing duties.
Reinforcement of customer service expectations, ethical conduct, equality and diversity awareness, and teamwork within a security setting.
The refresher is a one-day course. It includes both practical assessments (scenario-based exercises and physical intervention demonstrations) and a short written test.
Once you pass all assessments, you receive a certificate of completion. This is submitted as part of your SIA licence renewal application.
No. It is designed for people with security experience. Our instructors guide you through all content clearly, with small class sizes for detailed questions and scenarios.
