About The Event
AZ DPS Certified Armed Security Guard TrainingÂ
This 16-hour armed security guard lesson plan is a firearms safety course, designed to teach
the novice armed security guard the basics of gun safety, marksmanship, maintenance and
familiarization, as well as legal issues related to the use of deadly physical force. It is also
intended to provide training on issues likely to be encountered by armed security guards
while on duty.
Objectives:
1. To certify armed guards to carry firearms after successfully completing a 16-hour
course of instruction.
2. To inform armed guards of escalation and de-escalation of force issues as well as using
deadly physical force as justified by law.
3. To display knowledge and proficiency of deadly force issues by passing an approved
written test with a minimum score of 100 percent at the conclusion of the class. This
requires a score of at least 70 percent on the initial test. Initial test scores below 70
percent fail the class. Students will be retested on the questions they missed until 100%
is achieved.
4. To display shooting proficiency by firing a minimum of fifty (50) live rounds for
