Security Guard Training in Kentucky

At present, Kentucky does not have a licensing policy in place for unarmed security guards at the state level. However, there may be some requirements on the city and county levels in which case you must contact the local City Clerk’s office. In addition, the company that is hiring you may have basic criteria that you must meet as well.

Standard requirements across state lines:

  • Must be at least 18 years old
  • High School diploma or equivalent
  • No felony convictions or any crime involving the illegal use of weapons

Other Requirements that May Be Helpful:

  • Driver’s License
  • Good Communication skills
  • Good physical conditioning
  • Be able to stand long periods of time
