Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as Door Supervisor?

No — a Security Guard licence covers static and retail guarding. A Door Supervisor licence covers those roles plus door work and physical intervention.

Can I upgrade to Door Supervisor later?

Yes, with our Upskill course you can add Door Supervisor to your existing Security Guard licence.
