"Quickest and smoothest Door Supervisor Refresher I could have asked for. The trainer covered all the new updates clearly and the physical intervention recap was excellent. Did the 2-day refresher at Canary Wharf and my SIA licence was renewed within a week. The team really know what they're doing and made the whole process stress-free. Highly recommend for anyone needing to renew."
"Did my Door Supervisor Refresher here and it was brilliant. The trainer went through all the latest SIA updates and answered every question I had. The physical intervention practice was really useful and felt safe and well controlled. Licence renewed within 5 working days. Great location at Canary Wharf, easy to reach from anywhere in London."
"Excellent Door Supervisor Refresher. After 3 years out of the industry I was nervous about jumping back in, but the trainer made everything feel familiar again. The new conflict management content was really useful and the practical sessions were spot on. Got my SIA badge renewed quickly and I'm already back working. Thank you LSC."
"Booked the Door Supervisor Refresher and was really impressed. Clear, professional and very informative from start to finish. The trainer made what could have been a dry 2 days really engaging and we covered every module thoroughly. The Canary Wharf classroom is modern and the small group meant lots of discussion. 5 stars all the way."
"I took the Door Supervisor Refresher course from London Security College, and it was a great training. The team was excellent, and my licence got renewed in just 2 days. Quick, professional and well organised. Wouldn't go anywhere else for my next refresher."
"Great course! Helped me renew my SIA Door Supervisor licence with no hassle at all. The Refresher was well delivered and the trainer was friendly and easy to learn from. All the updates were explained clearly and I felt confident going back to work straight after. Highly recommend London Security College for any SIA renewal."
