I took a class for the Denver Guard armed certification on person on the 1st of December. Our instructors name is Ronnie, and I loved his class! He was very thorough in making sure the class knew what we were getting into, and what would be expected of us as Group. He made sure any questions we had were answered, and got us all out more knowledgeable than when we walked in within a timely manner. Very happy with my experience, and will definitely be taking more classes in the future.

I was looking for a class to get certified in using a baton and ACT due to my previous company not having a trainer on site. The requirements of Denver County having proof of training on file for insurance purposes for you to carry these tools while on duty. Ronnie was very informative and the company I work for now recognizes the certificate I received at this class. The class itself was affordable for one who is just trying to broaden their security career. Ronnie also offers CCW classes for Colorado residents trying to apply for their CHP as well as the proper training for your Denver Guard
