I was very happy; especially in this time of the pandemic; to find a program that fit both our budget and accessibility. One of the best things about the program for us is that it was entirely online. As far as I can tell it is the only program to get your PERC Card (Permanent Employee Registration Card) without attending classes at a facility or college. The videos were very informative and easy to understand! Thank you so much for your Security Guard College program. Keep up the good work!

Name is Ted. I recently registered and finished the class online. The program is very smooth, with great information all the way around. Video based, all the videos are less than 15 minutes and cover everything you need to know! I made a crucial mistake when registering and Jim was very helpful getting that all fixed and I was able to get in and complete the course! Definitely recommend to anyone going into security work!! Thank you Jim!

Also the education/teaching from the college is efficient, and very easy to understand. Highly recommend checking them out when in search of your security certificates. Mr. Jim was very friendly, & helpful during my process of getting me my certificate. Couldn’t thank him enough.-Will

I just finished my online training with Security Guard College. I would highly recommend them. I had the opportunity to work with JIM, who walked me through registration making sure everything went through and was set up. Their training program has a great deal of information for someone just getting started in the profession. Im feeling very prepared!Thanks Jim!!!

All of the time and effort I spent researching the various training providers paid off because the reviews and feedback for Security Guard College are extremely positive for a reason. It is not just the high quality of the content and delivery of the course materials, it is also the level of support and guidance the team gives every student. However, the most important reason you should select Security Guard College is how deeply they care about the reputation of their programs based on how well they prepare their graduates for perspective employers.

Awesome security guard college. If you’re looking into opening a new career in security/loss prevention officer, this is the place to turn to. Awesome people to communicate with and they allow you to work on the assignments at your own pace. If I could give 10 star I would!

Security Guard College provided me not only with the required training but made the training interesting.

The training and the quiz was very informative. I learn a lot that I didnt know about doing security. The instructor was very patient and helpful in guiding me through the process. The quizzes were easy as long as you stayed focused . I was able to rewind. I caught whatever I thought I missed. All together I made 45 out 50 with only taking the test 1 time, when they give you 2 chances to pass before Β you have to pay again. I would highly recommend Security Guard College to anyone interested in becoming a Security guard.

So LOOK this course I ended up taking online due to COVID-19. Trust me, Mr Jim, helped me get all set up and once the classes started it was easy from then on. It’s all SELF PACED. Just apply yourself and you’ll be good from then on.10/10 would take again.

I have just taken my certification with the Security Guard College, anyone who is looking to become a certified Security guard, i suggest that you go with the Security Guard College. I had the best experience, Jim walked me from A to Z, making sure that I was able to sign up to take the certification. If i had any questions, Jim answered all of my questions and always returned my phone calls. I am a person who gets nervous when taking a test,well i can tell you that i felt very confident when taking my test and i must say that i have learned so much. This is how i think instructors should be to their students. I gave them 5 stars,but if i could i honestly would have given them 10 stars. This is how much i learned and how much i loved the program. Thank you so much Security Guard College . Ms. Ebony Lavonne Thomas

Video training was clear, organization skills need improvement for issuing of certifications not received promptly after course completion, requested my certification for 3 business days, administrator was very unprofessional in submitting the certification of course completion to the student through the email procedure, updated transmittals for course completion certificates needs improvement .

So, for those of you who are not aware. This program is run by 2 people. 1 of which is very rude. The other I never spoke to. This program has to be the oldest class Ive ever had to go through. The videos in the course have to be from the 70s at the very least. I understand some things never change but for a state certification you would think it would be more up to date. I myself was forced to use this program because thats what my company has people use to get the PERC card. The course was extremely easy. I barely watched any of the videos and got 1 question wrong on all the quizes. And on the final I missed 4 questions. Passed the course with flying colors. I will also mention a previous co-worker of mine had told me before I completed the course that if you do not give them their 5 star review. They will hold your certifications hostage. Come to find out that was true after he provided proof from emails with the person who primarily runs the program. This was originally a 5 star review so I could get my certificates without a problem. But Ive now changed it. Some of you may be wondering how I passed the course so easily without completely studying the videos? Very simple, a lot of it was common sense. Ive also been involved with security work for about 4-5 years before I was made to get a PERC card. Ive also been involved with real law enforcement for 5-6 years and have an education in criminal justice. I was told that when you complete the course after giving the 5 star review, you leave with 6 additional certifications ontop of the PERC card. Making 7 certifications for you to have. Well I read through the provided paperwork after completion. I never saw 6 additional certifications in anything. Just my PERC certificate and certificate to prove I completed the course. Guess my point is this is not a program I want to go through ever again. Best of luck to you all.
