SIA training is a vital component of the British. This term of course has been superceded with the name doorman or door supervisor and it is part of the overall strategy to move away from the old image of tough mean and large looking men providing unregulated security and moving towards ways of avoiding the likelihood of any trouble occurring in the first instance. In fact, female door staff are in ever increasing demand as they are deemed a far more friendly face when meeting people into a venue.

With good sia door supervisor training, the emphasis is heavily put onto conflict resolution and removing any need for for forceful control to ever be required. In fact, the best form of security is to be aware of the dangers long before they are ever allowed to develop into anything which can pose a risk to patrons and the door staff.

The raising of standards over the years is because of SIA training which has been made compulsory for all door staff wanting a career in door supervision. Whilst an initial burden, it does put those qualified into the very best position to get long term employment in a safe working environment.

SIA courses are available throughout the UK and by and large involve a three or four days of coaching and include a written examination. Once passed, the participant is able to apply for their SIA badge and from then on is legally allowed to gain employment either permanently or on a part time basis for one of the hundreds of venues which need door staff on a regular basis throughout the UK.
