Expert Tip
Getting a Door Supervisor Licence is better value for money than a Security Guard Licence for many security professionals. It allows you to work in a variety of security jobs, including all manned guarding roles.
Remember, Security Guard licence holders cannot work in licensed premises that serve alcohol, which is another reason why we recommend the SIA Door Supervisor Licence course. It often proves an investment that opens you up to more job prospects.
