Why This Bundle Matters

California law requires security guards to complete:

• 32 hours of training within the first 6 months of registration
• 8 hours of continuing education annually thereafter

Failing to complete these requirements can result in non-compliance, employment issues, or inability to renew your Guard Card.

This bundle simplifies the process by giving you everything you need in one discounted, streamlined program.
