EVALUATION

Only those who have successfully completed this level of training may move on to the BST Level 2 training. Students are required to write a provincially administered, one-hour, multiple-choice test. This test is normally administered upon completion of BST 2; both the BST 1 and BST 2 tests are marked by the Police Academy. Successful completion is a mark of not less than 60% of the total numbers of marks. It is important to note that a provincial driver’s license, a BC Identification card, or a Military identification is required to write the tests.

The exam fee is included in the BST2 fees. Normally both exams are administered at one sitting for one charge. It is important to note that if a student is writing an exam at a different time (including re-writes), there will be an additional charge of $50.00.

This is the second level of mandatory training for anyone wanting to become a licensed security patrol guard in the Province of BC. It is a skills-based course designed to provide security guards with the ability to evaluate, defuse and control a variety of potentially confrontational or even violent encounters using verbal skills and, if required, appropriate and legal physical control tactics. Students who successfully complete both Basic Standards Training Level 1 and Basic Standards Training Level 2 will be eligible to receive a provincial issued certificate of training completion.

It is important to note that a provincial driver’s license, a BC Identification card, or a Military identification is required to write the tests.
