A.I.S.'s SECURITY GUARD TRAINING COURSE

Picture

​At AIS, our goal is to provide you with the most complete and comprehensive online investigator and security guard training available, delivered by the most experienced and knowledgeable instructors in Ontario. While some instructors at other training facilities have very limited field experience, our lead instructor, David Gibb, has worked in the trenches as a private investigator and security professional for three full decades. He has seen and done it all, and enjoys sharing his wealth of insights into the world of private policing with all new recruits.

Our detailed 40-hour training curriculum is recognized by, and meets the stringent training requirements of, Ontario’s Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services - Private Security and Investigative Services Branch.  (Our licencing status is held under our parent corporation, Providence Investigations Ltd.) The guidance and support that we provide while administering the course material is relevant and timely, and will be certain to launch you into a successful career as a security guard or private policing professional.

You will learn:
  • The fine points of making a lawful citizen's arrest;
  • The legal and appropriate use of force;
  • Steps to take control of an emergency situation, in order to save lives and property;
  • How to handle evidence, and then properly present that evidence in a Canadian court of law;
  • Your legal responsibilities as a security guard;
  • How to communicate effectively with all members of the public;
  • And much, much more!

                                                    ….ALL FOR ONLY $89.00 (+ HST)!!

Upon completion of our intensive web-based course (and a separate 6.5 hour first aid training course), students will be eligible to write the provincial test to obtain their security guard licence. Full details on how and where to write the test, as well as how to best prepare for it (along with sample tests), will be provided to all students during the course.

Students will also receive a digital Certificate of Completion upon successful completion of the course. (Alternatively, an embossed copy, printed on high-quality linen paper, suitable for framing, may be purchased for $25 postpaid.)
