What should new door supervisors look for in a training course?

Hi everyone,

When comparing door supervisor courses, price and location are easy to check. What’s harder to judge before booking is how well the teaching will prepare you for situations at work.

I’m part of the Hurak team, and I’d be interested to hear what experienced members think beginners should prioritise. Our SIA Door Supervisor Course page outlines the training content, including communication, conflict management and physical intervention, as a starting point for anyone comparing options.

Beyond the course outline, I’d suggest asking providers:

  • How are practical scenarios taught, and how much individual feedback do learners receive?
  • What experience do the trainers bring to their teaching?
  • What preparation is expected before attending?
  • What does the quoted price include, and are there separate costs?
For those already working on the doors, which part of your training proved most useful during your first few shifts? Was there anything you wish you’d asked before booking?
