As part of the renewal process, Door Supervision and Security Guard licence holders must possess a valid first aid qualification and complete the required top-up training. Non-compliance with these essential prerequisites may lead to the inability to renew the licence and acquire a new badge. Therefore, the sequential progression is typically to complete the SIA Security Guarding Course first and then, if interested in working at sites with alcohol, pursue the SIA Door Supervisor Course to acquire the necessary certification for those specific roles.
