What Are the Real SIA Top-Up Exams Like?

Before you take a mock test, it’s useful to understand how the real SIA Top-Up exams are structured. Each Top-Up course includes a multiple-choice exam that you must pass to renew your licence. Our mock tests are based on the same format, so you can practise in a realistic way.

Unit	Pass Mark	Duration
Unit 1: Principles of Working as a Door Supervisor	25/35 (71%)	55 minutes

Unit	Pass Mark	Duration
Unit 1: Principles of Working as a Security Officer	25/35 (71%)	55 minutes

Note: These mock tests focus only on the multiple-choice part of the exam. The real Top-Up qualifications also include practical assessments (e.g. use of radios or physical intervention demonstrations), which are not covered here.
