FAQs
Questions frequently asked by customers and professionals about our training, top-up and refresher courses.
Top Up Training was introduced to help fill the gaps in training following several changes within the industry. For those with a Security Guard or Door Supervisor License, everyone has now undergone this training and so the SIA has introduced the new Refresher Training package.
As the name suggests, this training is intended to ‘Refresh’ the skills you learned on your original course and to update you with things like, additions to the law, reminders of the SIA code of conduct or criminal trends such as drink spiking. If you have previously attended a Top Up Training session, you are advised to attend a Refresher training session before renewing your license, after April 2025, this advice will become mandatory.
Close Protection License holders must complete a Top Up before being able to renew their license, this is not expected to change until sometime in 2026.
