Course Description
| This course is suited for new entrants to the security industry and those who are returning to it having previously worked prior to the introduction of SIA licensing in 2004. Everyone will need to undertake the SIA training to be able to apply for the SIA licence.

Course Aim
| To work as a SIA SIA door supervisor or SIA Security Guard in the UK you will need to have an SIA licence issued by the Security Industry Authority (SIA).

NOTE: If you work as a SIA door supervisor or security officer without an SIA licence you are liable up to a fine of £5000 and/or up to 6 months in prison. For more information on SIA licensing or the SIA SIA door supervisors course please call us for details.

Additional Information
| After the SIA door supervisors course you will have to apply for your licence from the SIA (Security Industry Authority)
The licence application fee is £245 for a three year licence. The fee is to cover the cost of processing your application and is not refundable.
If you pay your own licence fee you will be able to claim tax relief against your taxable income. For example, if you pay the basic rate of tax the relief is worth £53.90. If you are an employer paying the licence fee on behalf of an employee there will be no tax or National Insurance liability.
Some security operatives may need more than one licence; in such cases the second licence will be discounted by 50%. So if you already hold an SIA licence in Vehicle Immobilisation, Security, CCTV or CVIT the Licence cost will be £122.50.
