Anyone wanting to work as a Security Guard needs to complete the Ministry’s Basic Security Guard program which consists of

  1. 40 hours of security training

  2. 32 hours of security training and 8 hours of First Aid and CPR training

  3. 33.5 hours of security training and 6.5 hours of First Aid and CPR training

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: 33.5 hours of security training and 6.5 hours of First Aid and CPR training

The correct response indicates that the Basic Security Guard program requires a total of 40 hours, which is typically broken down into both security training and First Aid/CPR training. In this case, the specified breakdown in the selected option aligns with the industry standard. The overall structure of the training program is designed to ensure that security personnel are well-equipped with both the skills necessary for security work and the emergency response skills provided by First Aid and CPR training. This comprehensive approach helps prepare individuals for various situations they may encounter on the job. While the other options present varying combinations of training hours, they do not accurately reflect the established requirements of the Basic Security Guard program as recognized by the Ministry.
