Security Officer: Level III Renewal

For Level III, Commissioned Security Officers needing to complete Continuing Education (Requalification)/Recertification who have never received baton training, DPS recommends completion of Unit 10 Intermediate Weapons of the full course before completing CE training to ensure adequate training concerning batons. P3TC offers a four-hour Baton Certification course; www.P3TC.com.

You might be able to get your Texas License to Carry Handgun (LTC) Handgun with a little extra time and nominal charge. Tell your Instructor if you are interested.

You may purchase the full P3TC Security Officer Training Manual for only $30.

“Please be advised under the Private Security Act (Occ. Code Chapter 1702) and Administrative Rule 35.4 (37 Tex. Admin.
