Worth knowing first
Do I need a first aid certificate before the door supervisor course?
Yes. You need a first aid qualification with at least 12 months left to run before you can take the training.

The SIA requires it before door supervisor training and before the refresher. Emergency First Aid at Work, or an equivalent, is accepted, and our one day course provides it. You show us the certificate when you register, not the SIA.
You must be 18 or over, have the right to work in the UK, pass identity and criminal record checks, and hold the right qualification for a front line licence.
›More on this
The SIA runs its checks after you apply, and the fee is not refundable if you fail them, so it is worth checking each one first. For a front line licence the awarding organisation must tell the SIA you hold the qualification before you can even submit the application. A key holding or non front line licence does not need a licence linked qualification.
