Security guard certification and the Wear & Carry Permit are separate credentials with separate applications. Completing training does not itself grant certification, a permit or authority to carry a handgun on duty. MSP must approve the applications. Security guard applicants must be employed by, or applying for employment with, a licensed security guard agency or security guard employer. If you have completed one course or may qualify for an exemption, contact LFT before purchasing.
Contact LFT to arrange training dates. Companies request a consultation for group pricing and scheduling.
