Module 1: Principles of Terror Threat Awareness (self-study prior learning)

Module 1: Principles of Terror Threat Awareness
Module 2: Principles of Using Equipment as a Door Supervisor
Module 3: Application of Physical Intervention
The Level 2 Award for Door Supervisors in the Private Security Industry (Top-Up) is designed for learners who currently possess an SIA licence as a Door Supervisor or Security Guard and need to update their knowledge and skills inline with new, licence-linked qualifications. You’ll learn how to understand terror threats, the role of a security operative in the event of a terror threat and how to use equipment relevant to a security advisor.
You’ll also discover what actions to take in relation to critical incidents and understand physical interventions, the risks associated with them and the implications of their use.
