24 Del. Admin. Code § 1300-4.0 - Training Requirements
4.1 Each person licensed as a security guard under 24 Del.C. Ch. 13 shall successfully complete a training program approved by the Board, and any such additional training as the Board deems appropriate. Satisfactory completion of the training program shall be certified by mandatory testing with a passing grade of 75%. The test will be administered by a Board approved training/testing facility.
4.1.1 The required training shall include, but not be limited to, instruction in rules and regulations, legal requirements and limitations, use of force, ethics, emergency services, diversity, communication, asset protection, and terrorism. The Board, in its discretion, may require such additional topics as it finds necessary.
4.1.2 Individuals engaged in any violation of academic integrity which is validated by the testing facility will be required to repeat the testing process and incur any additional costs involved. If a subsequent violation of the academic standard is discovered and validated by the testing facility, the individual will be barred from taking any further tests and their license or application will be denied/suspended. No provision of this Section will exclude the individual from a due process hearing before the Board, if requested.
4.1.3 Individuals may complete the training with either a Board approved training facility or the agency that employs them. The employer must hold either a Class B or Class C agency license.
4.2 Certified instructors must be employed by a Board approved training facility or a Class B or C agency providing the training. All instructors' certifications will be pursuant to subsection 4.2.1.
4.2.1 Instructors for the training program must be certified by a Board approved training facility by completing an Instructor Certification Course. This course will be developed by an approved training/testing facility with collaboration from the Professional Licensing Section, and approved by the Board. An instructors test shall be mandatory with a passing grade of 75%. If this test is failed, the instructor shall re-take the course and the test until receiving a passing grade before being certified. Instructors who were approved by rules set by previous versions of this Section would remain eligible to instruct as long as they retake the Instructor Certification Course administered by the Board approved facility by January 1, 2021.
4.2.2 In order to remain certified, instructors must take a refresher course offered by a Board approved training facility every five years or sooner as the Board may require. The refresher course will contain updates to the training curriculum and testing materials previously approved by the board.
4.2.3 The approved training facility shall provide the Professional Licensing Section with the names and test scores of all instructors certified. This information will be forwarded to the Board.
4.2.4 An instructors approval may be suspended or revoked as deemed necessary by the Board.
4.3 The Professional Licensing Section shall have the authority to require regular reports on training from licensees and employers, and shall report to the Board on compliance with this Section.
4.4 Training and test certifications shall be submitted with each new or renewal application, and the training shall be completed no more than one year prior to submission of the application. 11 DE Reg. 810 (12/01/07)
