In the state of California, working as a licensed security guard starts with one essential step: earning your BSIS Guard Card.

What Is the California Guard Card?
The Guard Card is the official license required by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) for anyone who wishes to work as an unarmed private security guard in California. Without this certification, individuals cannot be legally employed in most security roles.
The certification process includes required coursework, fingerprinting, a background check, and registration with the state. Once obtained, the Guard Card must be kept active through additional training and renewal protocols.
