⚠️ WARNING: Beware of Ultra-Cheap “5-Hour 100% Online $13.99–$19.99 Powers to Arrest Guard Card Pre-Licensing” Courses.

These cheap courses are bait-and-switch scams — for the first 8 hours of Initial Guard Card training, BSIS requires at least 50% in-person instruction. Only the additional 32 hours of continuing training can be completed 100% online. BSIS has received numerous complaints about these fake courses — protect your future and learn more in our blog Here, and view the official Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) warning Here.
