Security Training Center's goal is to make our students the best-informed and most current security officers in the industry.

DUTY TIP:   When happening upon a clandestine drug lab while patrolling, DO NOT enter, take pictures or notes. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY and THEN call law enforcement. Many of these labs are booby-trapped, have highly dangerous chemicals and scouts with orders to shoot trespassers on sight.
