Introduction to Security and Protection
Orientation - Introduction to Security
Explore how private security evolved and what role it plays today across industries, then lock in Arizona guard requirements, from licensing to on-post compliance. Clearly distinguish private security from law enforcement, scope, authority, and responsibilities, so operations stay confident, lawful, and within policy.
Legal Aspects of Security
Legal and Ethical Considerations in Security
Learn the legal boundaries and ethical standards that guide protection work, licensing, scope of authority, consent-based screenings, justified force, documentation, and clean handoffs to law enforcement. The course emphasizes policy-aligned decision-making under pressure to safeguard rights, reduce liability, and protect people and property.
Communication and Reporting
Technical Writing for Protection Specialists
Learn how to turn what you see, hear, and do on post into clear, defensible reports that drive decisions and stand up to legal and client review. You’ll practice the notes-to-narrative workflow, tighten mechanics and tone, and apply ethics, privacy, and chain-of-custody standards every time you write.
Understanding Behavioral Styles with the DISC Model
Learn how to read and use DISC behavioral styles to improve communication, de-escalation, and team coordination on post. You’ll practice spotting Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Compliance in real scenarios and adjust your approach to reduce risk and build cooperation.
Survival Spanish for Protection Specialists
Build a fast, practical Spanish toolkit for protection work, greetings, lawful directives, access-control phrases, welfare/evacuation commands, and danger-word recognition. You’ll practice clear, respectful communication and de-escalation language (and when to call an interpreter) so you can keep people, property, and your team safe.
Physical Security Measures
Protective Patrol
This lesson shows protection specialists how to patrol private sites safely and lawfully, covering purpose, patterns, modes, common calls, and scope under post orders and Arizona rules. Through short videos and practical scenarios, you’ll plan routes, use SOC/radio, de-escalate, document clearly, and know when to call law enforcement.

Critical Incident Management Essential Strategies
Lead the first five minutes of a crisis with confidence: conduct a rapid size-up, assume command, define hot/warm/cold zones, set inner/outer perimeters, stand up a Command Post and staging, and coordinate resources using ICS. Through practical scenarios, you’ll stabilize scenes, integrate with public safety, and transition cleanly to resolution and after-action steps.
