California SB652 amends security guard training requirements, including completion of a power to arrest course.

California SB652 amends the Business and Professions Code to update security guard training requirements. It mandates that applicants for security guard registration must complete a course in the exercise of the power to arrest and the appropriate use of force. The training must be administered and certified by a single course provider and completed within six months before submitting the application to the bureau. The bill also requires security guard registrants to complete at least 32 hours of training in security officer skills within six months of their initial registration.
