16 Hour In Person

This is a 16 hour in person training program that prepares students to pass the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) exam and earn a guard card. This program delivers all instruction in person. In addition to the 8 hours of instruction in BSIS Power to Arrest Courses, students complete two of the 4 hour Mandatory Courses BSIS requires guards to complete within thirty (30) days of starting employment. The 16 hour program addresses the following security topics: powers to arrest, weapons of mass destruction, public relations, and observation & documentation. Students receive certificates of completion for each BSIS Section 643 course completed within the training to provide to employers. Successful graduates become registered by BSIS as a security guard and work as an entry level guard. More than 90% of MCAS students are hired with an MCAS partner security firm before they begin training. The program includes course curriculum, LiveScan background check, and BSIS application fee.
