Overview of Level II Certification

Level II certification is an entry-level certification intended for individuals seeking to begin their careers in private security.  This license is often required for unarmed security officers who perform essential protective services in businesses, residential complexes, and public venues.  It ensures that licensed individuals have undergone standardized training and are knowledgeable about the basics of security services, ethics, and legal compliance.
