General Information:

What is SIA?

The aim of the SIA (Security Industry Authority), the UK licensing authority for the private security industry, is to increase the skill and professionalism of those employed in the Security Industry and to enhance the public’s consumer confidence. Therefore anyone carrying out CVIT, CCTV/PPS, Door Supervision, Security Supervision, Security Guarding, Security Consulting, Close Protection, Key Holding, Private Investigation or Vehicle Immobilising and Wheel Clamping, must hold a valid SIA licence. You will need a SIA licence from the Security Industry Authority if you wish to work as a Security Officer or a door supervisor and are responsible for security, protection or screening the suitability of persons entering licence premises or dealing with conflict in pubs, clubs and other licence premises open to the public. Whether you are already working as a Security Officer or Door Supervisor but are yet to receive SIA training, or you are considering work as a Security Officer or Door Supervisor, you need to be SIA licensed as a Door Supervisor or a Security Guard. It is now illegal to work as a Security Officer or Door Supervisor without SIA Security Licence. Please go to either the Door Supervisor Training Courses or Security Guard Training Courses page if you have not received SIA training and need to book a SIA training course.

How to get a SIA license from the Security Industry Authority

To get a SIA licence you must complete a 4-day SIA training course. At the end of the SIA licence training you will write two exams for both parts of the SIA training course to achieve this SIA approved qualification. You do not need any previous experience or qualification to enrol for this SIA training course. The SIA approved courses are of two parts: Part 1 - Role and responsibilities of Door Supervisors or Security Officers (if training to become a Security Officer), and the part 2 - Communication Skills and Conflict Management, culminating in two examinations to prove competency. Then you can apply for SIA licence with your certificates. To clarify, you can either apply to join the SIA Security Guarding course or SIA Door Supervisors' course, both courses of which have Communication Skills and Conflict Management as a second part. On completion of this SIA training exam, it takes approximately 2 weeks for your certificate to arrive and then you can apply for SIA licence to the Security Industry Authority (SIA) who will then process your SIA licence application form. In the first instance, they will send you SIA acknowledgement letter indicating that they have received your application form and return your supporting documents with this acknowledgement letter. You can then approach Security firms for work with this SIA acknowledgement letter. You can work with this letter while you await your SIA badge. But not all Security companies will accept SIA acknowledgement letter. The SIA runs an "approved contractors' scheme" and it is only the Security companies who are on this scheme that can consider you for work if you meet their criteria. But once you have received your SIA licence card from the SIA you can legally work anywhere in the Security Industry.
