NC PPSB ARMED SECURITY GUARD TRAINING

North Carolina Private Protective Services Board requires successful completion of the 20-hour Firearms Training Course to perform the duties of an armed security officer in this state. The standard format is conducted over 3 consecutive days including both classroom and range time, but scheduling can be customized according to the needs of your company or group.

Possessing a NC Concealed Carry (CCH) permit does not automatically authorize you to carry a firearm concealed. You must submit your armed guard registration application requesting a concealed endorsement and provide a copy of your valid permit to the PPSB. If you do not already have your NC CCH permit, you may request to be issued documentation for CCH training upon successful completion of this course.

This course is also required prior to pursuing PPSB Long Gun training (Carbine and/or Shotgun) and registration.

NC licensed Private Investigators wishing to obtain their Armed Private Investigator license must have already attended the first four hours of the Unarmed Security Guard Course prior to attending the Armed Guard Training Course.
