Frequently Asked Questions
What type of jobs can I work with a CT Guard Card?
A Connecticut Guard Card qualifies you for a wide range of unarmed security positions throughout the state. Common roles include retail loss prevention, school security, mall security, corporate office security, hospital security, warehouse and distribution center security, event security, residential community patrol, and construction site security. Nearly every professional unarmed security position in Connecticut requires a valid Guard Card.
What do I do next after class?
After successfully completing the 8-hour CT Guard Card course, you will complete your state and national background checks online, then schedule your fingerprinting appointment with the Connecticut State Police. These are the only two required steps after class — backgrounds and fingerprints. Once completed, you will mail your Guard Card application to the state for processing. We walk every student step-by-step through this process so you know exactly what to do.
What if I need help after class?
As a benefit of attending our class, your instructor will always be available to answer questions — even after you leave the classroom. Whether you need help finding security jobs, want a professional reference, or have general questions about the industry, we are here to help and we do so happily. Our goal is not just to get you certified — it’s to help you succeed in your security career.
