Eligibility — Read Before Enrolling
Under Texas law (HB 1508), a criminal history may make you ineligible for a security officer license, even after completing training. You have the right to request a criminal history evaluation letter from the Texas DPS before enrolling. This course provides training and certification only — the license itself is issued solely by the Texas Department of Public Safety.
