What A 4182 does, verified January 11, 2026

The proposed legislation aims to exempt certain security guards from annual in-service training courses. Currently, security guards are required to complete training courses to maintain their registration. The new exemption would apply to security guards who hold a bachelor's degree or higher in criminal justice or a related field. This exemption would allow these security guards to continue working without the requirement of annual training courses. The changes would take effect immediately.
