Through these course, graduates will learn all that’s required to become certified as security guards in Texas. Level 1 training was repealed by the State in 2010, meaning all private security guards in Texas are no longer required to complete Level 1 training, either in a classroom setting or online.

This is a 45-hour security training class that is required by both the State of Texas and the Private Security Bureau, which includes both classroom time and training at a gun range.
To be eligible for Level 3 training, you’ll need to be sure your background is free of any felony convictions, as well as Class A and Class B misdemeanors that occurred in the last five years.
After you’ve completed the course and received your certification, you’ll also need to be fingerprinted and pay a registration fee to the State of Texas.
