What is required for a training school to receive approval from the department?

Utilizing the most current training manual is essential for a training school to receive approval from the department because it ensures that the curriculum aligns with the latest standards, practices, and legal requirements applicable to the security industry. Training materials that are outdated may not reflect the current laws, best practices, or evolving technologies relevant to private security, potentially leading to gaps in knowledge and skills among trainees. By using the most up-to-date resources, training schools can provide a comprehensive education that prepares students effectively for their roles in the workforce.

This adherence to current training materials is a key part of maintaining quality education and ensuring that all security personnel are equipped with the necessary information to perform their duties safely and legally. Having current resources is an essential factor in the department's evaluation process for training school approvals.
