This course covers all the skills and knowledge required to use a firearm in the security industry.

If you do not currently hold a Queensland Security Guard Weapons Licence, enrol in the Security Guard Weapons Licence course.

On successful completion, participants will be issued with a Statement of Attainment with the following unit:

Both licences must be current on the course start date. Students are required to submit clear copies of each licence during enrolment to meet legal and safety requirements for participation.

Participants must have sufficient skills to read, write and communicate in English, and have access to a computer with internet access and Microsoft Word.

Licence & Regulatory Requirements

The Security Licence (Guard) – Employee (Cat C, E & H) permits you to carry a weapon while performing security guard duties for a licensed security organisation. However, it does not grant you the authority to acquire firearms.

All Weapon Licenses are administered by Queensland Police – Weapons Licensing.

Course Price $250.00

Fees include all assessments and resources needed to complete the course.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is not offered for the Security Guard Weapons refresher course due to the safety-critical and statutory requirements associated with carrying and using firearms. Completing the full course ensures participants have the up-to-date practical skills, knowledge, and licensing compliance required to work safely in the security industry.
