Who should register
This is a specialty course for security staff who work in licensed premises. It is self-directed academic materials with assignments and quizzes to ensure the learning.
It fills the gap between the basic information taught for Guard licensing and the realities of the job. Government programs do NOT teach you the specialty skills required to stay safe while working in a licensed premise.
This is specialized security training for licensed premises.

Why take this course
This is a specialty course specifically designed for security guards in Ontario who work in a licensed establishment. This is NOT Smartserve or a security guard licensing course. This is all the material and information they don't teach or tell you about.
It contains tactics and information to keep “bouncers” safe while working in these challenging workplaces and fills the gap between the basic PSISA 40 hour licensing course and what is required to be a professional security practitioner in a licensed premise.

Course Outline
This not a security guard licensing course. This is continuing education for the security field.
- Isn't this just Smartserve content recycled?
Not even close. This program goes into depth on legal issues that are the cause for most litigation in the alcohol service industry. It also includes practical tips and techniques for such things as spotting fake I.D., dealing with large crowds and difficult people. Further, it provides real world information on how to use the Ontario Trespass to Property Act along side the LLCA to maintain a peaceable and enjoyable environment.
- Why do I need this course? I can work in any bar on my current guard license alone.
Yes you can, however if you look at what you were taught in the basic Ontario Security Guard licensing course it does NOT contain the specifics that you need to know to work effectively in a bar. This gives rise to two main problems for you; first, you have no specific training on do's and don'ts regarding personal safety, legal issues and alcohol liability, and secondly zero training on what is or is not appropriate regarding the use of force for ejection or interventions in a bar setting. Alcohol liability is the single largest area of civil litigation in Ontario.
- Is there a special license endorsement in Ontario for working in bars and license premises?
No. Tiered licensing is not in effect in Ontario. Parallel industries such as Hospital Security and Loss Prevention are also without specific training standards and legislated content within the PSISA training to obtain a guard license in Ontario.
- Bars, especially nightclubs, can be violent places for security staff to work. I'm aware that there is NO hands on, practical training required for use of force to be a guard in Ontario. This said, is there a practical hands on training available for “bouncers?"
Yes. This is again, a specialty course that can be completed in one day at your venue. Groups of 12 or more are required. Use the “contact us” tab to obtain a quote for this program.
You will be a given 6 weeks to finish this course. A one time extension of 3 weeks can be requested, if you need it. After that one final extension may be purchased for $75.00 plus HST
