A security guard or security officer is responsible for monitoring a specific area or building to prevent violent incidents, theft, or other events that may endanger people or property. To get a security certificate in Texas, a person must undergo a security guard training course. There are a number of types of licenses or “levels” to obtain that determine the kind of security work you are able to do.

In Houston, TX, a level 2 non-commissioned security license allows for a Houston Texas security guard to provide unarmed security services. In contrast, for an armed security guard license, a level 3 certificate is required.

City Security Academy based in Houston, TX, provides quality level 2 security training.  Not only does our training prepare you for the role, but it also puts you at the front of the queue for security jobs because our training is recognized as some of the best in the industry.

 We offer certification training for level 2 for non-commissioned security officers. This trains you to be able to handle the day-to-day roles of being a security officer, while preparing you to be able to stay calm and react safely and professionally when the unexpected happens. A level 2 Houston Texas security guard, who trains with us, is well prepared and recognized by clients throughout Houston as a great candidate, putting you right at the top of the job market.

For level 3 commissioned training, we work with our partnered agency who is recognized as one of the state’s best training programs. Level 3 graduates have had practical training in managing hostile situations and time on the gun range to ensure they are competent with a weapon and the role it plays in security.

Level 3 allows you to be armed but not concealed. The training for the level 4 program is more intense and covers more time on the range handling a weapon in a variety of situations, as well as looking at close quarter protection. Our training is intentionally demanding because our graduates are recognized as some of the best in the industry.
