Guide to Licensing

…and Continuing Education: A State-By-State Resource

The SecurityCEU.com State Licensing and CEU Requirements resource for the security, fire, and life safety industry was first developed in 2015. It was compiled over a 7-month period of time. Each year we perform a full audit and update on the document then release a new revision to keep this resource current. We are currently offering revision 6.0. The document shares detailed information on every state – their licensing requirements, if any, the board or governing agency’s contact information, the certification and exam requirements, associated fees for license approval, links to necessary forms, CEU information, and a list of SecurityCEU.com courses approved in that state. We are pleased to provide this resource to our customers and partners at no cost. Please feel free to use this resource in any way that benefits your organization. All we ask is that you use it in its entirety and with SecurityCEU.com branding as an acknowledgement of our hard work and efforts.
