Security Course

Use of Force Training

Use-of-force training teaches the legal limits, defensive tactics, and de-escalation techniques used to manage confrontational or high-risk situations safely and lawfully. This course focuses on understanding authority, maintaining professional control, and reducing conflict before situations escalate. 

These skills matter because knowing when and how force can legally be used helps protect both the professional involved and the individuals they interact with. The training is intended for security professionals, individuals preparing for security roles, and professionals seeking practical conflict-management and safety skills.

This course meets the strict standards of the Ministry of the Solicitor General’s Private Security and Investigative Services Branch and is mandatory for individuals who plan to carry batons, firearms, handcuffs, or work with dogs. To remain compliant, you must recertify every 12 months.
