Security Guard EMRG 9151
Our Security Guard course meets the requirements set by the Ministry of the Solicitor General. The course helps you acquire the knowledge and skills you need to prepare for a variety of careers in the security sector. This security course focuses on physical/personal security, crime prevention, and emergency-level first aid skills. Explore the historical roots of security, and learn about the legislation, regulations, and policies used by security personnel as well as their roles and responsibilities. Case studies, current research, and best practice provide the foundation for learning.
