More on California Security Guard Training Business

There's a lot to consider when establishing a business training security guards. Requirements vary by state, of course. Here in California, we have to work with the state's Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. There are a number of applications that need to be completed and fees that have to be paid.

After that's done, you need to accumulate all your educational material that make up your curriculum. All that needs to be approved by BSIS. The basic 8-hour course called Powers To Arrest is available for free (thank Goodness!) directly from the BSIS web site.

Then, you need a location. As many here already know, it's tough in California to get permission for having firearms on the premises. For this business, you can get by without it. Most of the courses, and probably 95% of the business, doesn't require firearms. For firearms permits, qualifications and requalifications, you can use a nearby range. That's my approach.

Here's that business. It's called Academy Firearms & Security Training.

Security Guard Training

I've tried the civilian training market and it's a tough one to make a living with. Some instructors who are savvy and experienced, with connections, can work the law enforcement market. But those are prime gigs for a select few.

Another field to look into is training for security guards. In California, since passing bill AB 2880, security guards have a requirement to obtain 40 hours of training initially and an additional 8 hours training per year. That's for non-firearms training. Obtaining a firearms permit is optional for a guard, and more training is required in order to obtain that permit. In addition, the guard needs to requalify biannually.

In order to provide this training in California, a training provider needs to register as a training facility with the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS). The actual instructor needs to register as a certified instructor --- either a baton or firearms instructor. Once a business is certified by BSIS as a facility and has a BSIS certified instructor, it is ready to operate a training business to meet the needs of the security guard occupation in California.

Here's a description from the BSIS of the training requirement:

Here's information about establishing a training facility with the BSIS:

I haven't yet established that business but will soon. Here's my webpage with a pre-announcement: California Security Guard Training
