The security industry is very diverse sector, different working environments demand different approaches based on a variety of factors including; location, demographic of the customer base, entertainment offered, size, experience of employees and the times they are open to the public.

 

Training in the sector falls into two categories;

 

  1. Statutory qualifications which enable candidates to apply for their SIA licence to operate.
  2. Workplace specific training which enhances these basic qualifications and provides continued professional development.

 

Proactive employers understand the merits of a combined approach, as the effective way to train their workforce.

 

The Security Industry Authority (SIA) guidance reminds employers that the National Certificate for Door Supervisors (NCDS) should act as a basic requirement for door supervisors and additional workplace specific training should be given.

 

We can help you comply with this guidance through our courses such as our In-House Security Induction Course and our Consultancy Service.
