Private Security....
A fast growing industry that is changing the way corporations are looking at security agents. No longer an industry for a warm body, security is coming into its own. Upscale corporations are demanding knowledgeable agents who can reduce their liability and work alongside their employees, in exchange for steady work, benefits, better pay and a chance for advancement. There is the possibility of starting at seven, eight or nine dollars an hour. As soon as the firearms permits arrive, jobs are available at up to eleven dollars an hour and if you stick with it and get some seasoning earning can develop up to twenty-three dollars an hour.

 The Profession....
While security is basically an OBSERVE AND REPORT function, the need for well trained, observant agents is rising. Utilizing knowledge of electronic CCTV equipment, hazardous materials, safety codes, loss prevention and handling of emergency situations, as well as facility protection and patrol, make up an average day. Patrol or shift supervisory, security chiefs and qualified managers for corporation and security firms are in demand. This is an occupation providing continuous employment in a variety of firms. The US Department of Labor reports job opportunities in this field as favorable through the year 2006. Employment is expected to grow faster than average due to increased concerns about crime in the workplace, gang violence and the need to provide security in courts and schools. In 1996, security guards held approximately 955,000 jobs with 59% of the agents working for security agencies and industrial firms.
  Dignitary Protection...
Dignitary ProtectionEx-police and seasoned security officers are in demand for benefit performances, studio work, estate protection, political events and corporate executive protection. It affords variety, prestige and the ability to meet people in the know. Specialized knowledge in escort and personal protection, workplace violence and special event protection, as well as travel briefing, security surveys and threat management assessment make for a
well-rounded agent.
Agents must be 18 years or older, retain required permits and pass an exam
requiring classroom training in the Business and Professions Code, a persons rights, emergency procedures and the legal detention of suspected criminals.
This is only a part of the instruction given at our college
Conditions and pay vary. Agents can spend considerable time sitting, standing, patrolling, communicating with people, viewing CCTV screens, observing and reporting. Airport security will pay more than general offices. The more training and experience you get the more you are worth. Due to the rising violence, there are special agencies, free to the agent, that recruit high-level security. The median earning, according to the US Department of Labor was from $17,300 to $25,100; the highest tenth earning more than $35,600. Agents with more specialized training and experience has median hourly earnings averaging
$11.73
