That is the address to the department of consumer affairs, California, Bureau of Security Investigative Services. They will have all of the information and forms that you need for being a security guard in California.

However, I will summarize what the site will say...

- 8 hour course w/40 additional hours in the first year. (Powers to Arrest Manual)

- Minimal or no criminal record

- $50 security guard application fee

- $36 DOJ fingerprinting fee, $24 FBI fingerprinting fee

- Take a test

- $25 to $100 for Livescan operator to scan you

There is different requirements for armed, baton, pepper spray, etc.

Hope this helps.
