At the end of each day, you will have to complete a timed exam for the Security D Class, and for the G course, you will have to take one(1) written exam at the end of day 3 Online Security Training.
Our security instructors will walk you through the entire application process for the security licenses and prepare you for the required exams for security licensure.

NB: We do not use Zoom. We have a dedicated application that makes our online training one of a kind.
