How This Bundle Works
What’s Included
After Course Completion
Upon completing the Class “D” course, students will receive a Certificate of Completion. Upon completing the Class “G” course and required range qualification, students will receive a Certificate of Proficiency. Applications are processed through the Division of Licensing of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
A hard copy of the Class “D” license costs $45, and a background check costs $52.75. Once approved, students may receive a temporary Class “D” license that allows them to work as licensed security officers in Florida while the hard copy is processed.

Students should also be aware that an annual 4-hour requalification is required each year to keep the Class “G” license active.
