Level-2 Non-Commissioned Texas Security Officer Training

Texas Certified Tactical Academy (TCTA) is a Texas Department of Public Safety-approved and licensed training academy. In addition to our brick-and-mortar location in Round Rock/Pflugerville, Texas, we are excited to offer an online version of the Texas DPS-RSD official Level 2 non-commissioned training course.

This course is authorized to be taken online as Texas DPS-RSD regulations no longer require that it must be given in a classroom environment, and no longer state “must be given by a certified instructor” which opens the door to an online Level-2 Non-Commission course.

Additionally, Texas DPS-RSD removed the six-hour time requirement years ago, so this class still complies with the minimum requirements of the State, regardless of the length of time it takes.

NOTE: This course is not intended to be the only official training your employees/security officers receive. Texas DPS-RSD did not create this short course to be the “end-all-be-all” of training. You need additional training far beyond this brief information to perform adequate security for any client as this is a basic intro to security course. Upon successful completion of the course and passing the 50-question exam, students will be emailed a certificate of completion from us which is recognized and approved by Texas DPS-RSD.

This is the introductory class that everyone must take if they want to work security in Texas:

• DPS-RSD Regulations/Actions
• Role of Security Officers
• Police Interaction
• Security Conflict Resolution
• Use of Force
• Detainment Vs Arrest
• Radio Procedures
• Report Writing
• Observations
• Response to Emergencies
• Applicable Texas Penal Code Studies
• State Exam
