section. A registrant who is unable to provide his or her employing licensee the certificate of

satisfactory completion required by this subdivision shall complete 16 hours of the training

required by subdivision (b) Within 30 days of the date of his employment and shall complete the

16 remaining hours within six months of his or her employment date.

(d) The department shall develop and approve by regulation a standard course and curriculum for

the skills training required by subdivision (b) to promote and protect the safety of persons and

the security of property. For this purpose, the department shall consult with consumers, labor

organizations representing private security officers, private patrol operators, educators, and

subject matter experts.

(e) The course of training required by subdivision (b) may be administered, tested, and certified

by any licensee, or by any organization or school approved by the department. The department

may approve any person or school to teach the course.

(f) (1) On and after January 1, 2005, a licensee shall annually provide each employee registered

pursuant to this chapter with eight hours of specifically dedicated review or practice of security

officer skills prescribed in either course required in Section 7583.6 or 7583.7.

This study guide provides the minimum standards of instruction for security personnel. It is a

self-instructional course designed to educate the trainee to carry out his or her duties with

caution and within the confines of law.

In this document, the masculine gender includes the feminine.

The term “security guard” is used throughout the course. However, this training applies to all

security guards and alarm agents who are required to register with the bureau. This booklet

includes a copy of “The Responsibilities of the Security Guard.” Each applicant must be

supplied with a copy of this information. Please make sufficient copies to supply one to each

applicant.

An applicant must receive a score of 100 percent on the examination in order to successfully

complete the course [Title 16, California Code of Regulations (CCR) Section 628 (b)]. Trainees

who fail the final examination the first time may restudy their weak areas and try again. If the

trainee has difficulty understanding the material as presented in the booklet, you will be expected

to offer guidance. This does not mean that you are to provide the answer key along with the

booklet, but rather to assist the applicant to understand the questions.

If you are an employer administering the examination, keep in mind that you may be held

responsible for your employee’s conduct while on duty; therefore, it is in your interest to ensure

that they are properly trained. If you are a Bureau-approved instructor, you may be held liable

for the conduct of those to whom you have provided instruction; therefore, it is in your interest to  

train the students properly.

These booklets are intended for reuse. Please be sure to caution applicants to refrain from

writing in the booklets. You are responsible for making any additional copies.
