What can cause the revocation or suspension of an instructor's approval?

The revocation or suspension of an instructor's approval can occur due to violating any provisions of the Act or the accompanying chapter. This is a serious infraction because instructors are expected to adhere to the legal and ethical standards set forth in the regulations governing their conduct and teaching practices. Violations of these provisions could include misconduct such as providing false information, violating student trust, or engaging in unethical behavior during training sessions.

By ensuring that instructors maintain compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, the integrity of the training process is upheld, which is essential for maintaining high standards within the private security industry. This accountability helps to protect both the students and the reputation of the profession as a whole. The consequences of violating these provisions are therefore appropriately severe, reinforcing the importance of adherence to the rules established by the Texas DPS Private Security Bureau.

Attending annual workshops, receiving complaints from students, or not updating contact information may have implications for an instructor's standing but do not directly result in automatic revocation or suspension. These activities are often part of standard operational practices rather than violations of legal or regulatory provisions.
