A School With A Unique Approach

A School With A Unique Approach

Joseph Security, LLC simplifies the process of becoming certified guard in New York State. Our unique approach is aimed at helping students balancing work and family. What we have done is breaking up the tradition of taking an 8-hour training course in one session. We have the best interest of our students in heart and mind, which is why we offer them the opportunity to complete their training requirements in two four-hour sessions as opposed to the traditional one 8-hour session. This added feature makes it a lot more easier for Security Officers to fulfill their training requirements on a timely manner and conveniently without having to take an entire day off from work or family responsibilities. This option is available to both in-service officers looking to recertify and first-time guards. For new guards, the 2nd half of the 8hr Pre-assignment must be completed within 7 days. Our school also offers the traditional 8-hour session. Also, we offer free assistance to our students with fingerprints scheduling, preparing and filing the license application with the NYS Division of licensing.
