SIA licensing requirements have changed. If you currently hold a Door Supervisor licence and need to renew, you may now be required to complete updated training before your licence can be renewed.

This 2-day refresher course brings you up to date with the new licence-linked qualification requirements, covering the latest topics mandated by the SIA — including terror threat awareness, spiking prevention, and updated physical intervention skills.

Delivered by DBSG Academy, the dedicated training arm of De Boer Global, our experienced instructors ensure you’re fully prepared and confident for your licence renewal.

Don’t let your licence lapse. Complete this course and continue working without interruption.
