Starting from October 2021, Security Officers must undertake additional training to update their skills before their licence renewal.
The BIIAB Level 2 Award for Security Officers in the Private Security Industry (Top Up) is tailored for individuals already possessing an SIA Licence to operate as security officers, aligning them with the latest requirements for Licence renewal.
This top-up course aligns with the SIA's educational and qualification standards and receives backing from Skills for Security, the security industry's benchmarking organisation, as well as the SIA, the governing body for the sector.
Please remember you can start the book in for a SIA Refresher course up to 4 months prior to your SIA Badge expiring.
You can also do this course to change your Licence from Door Supervisor to Security Officer Licence.
