BIIAB National Certificate for Door Supervisors (NI)
Who is the qualification for?
The Level 2 National Certificate for Door Supervisors (Northern Ireland) is designed for those who wish to work in the industry; and is awarded to those who pass two examinations covering the basic knowledge and responsibilities of the occupation.
This nationally recognised qualification is the industry standard and enables a door supervisor to apply for a licence to practise.
The SIA issues licences to door supervisors who meet their criteria. In the interests of the industry as a whole and in support of its licence to practise, the SIA invited BIIAB and City & Guilds to work together to develop the BIIAB Level 2 National Certificate for Door Supervisors (Northern Ireland).
What does the assessment involve?
To qualify for an SIA licence you will need to satisfy three requirements:
- Pass an identity check
- Pass a criminal records check
- Possess a recognised door supervisor qualification.
If you have completed a door supervisor training course and/or qualification you may be exempt from some or all of the SIA's training and qualification requirements. For a list of SIA's exemptions, visit www.the-sia.org.uk
Candidates who have previously achieved the BIIAB Level 2 NCDS - Licensed Premises; and also hold the updated modules for Fire Safety, Drugs Awareness and Conflict Management are entitled to full exemption.
