Testimonials

"It was very easy to use. Quick, simple, and straight to the point. I especially liked how you can pause when you need to and pick right back up with no problem at all."

"I appreciated the capability within the Lesson 1 videos to be able to pause them to record notes more thoroughly. The audio mixed with the words printed on the slide helped out a lot too. I was able to make sure I got the points recorded accurately for that reason."

"The examples explained after the description of the penal codes really helped me understand them, even more. The videos were descriptive as well, when it came to talking about self defense laws and using force on the job. Very informative about trespassing penal codes, I learned a lot more than I ever even known about trespassing, up till now."

"I have been a peace officer in California for 22 years and have attended 1,000's of hours of training, including 100's of hours of on-line training (both law enforcement and private sector training). By far, Palladium's curriculum, training materials and the training platform are the best. The environment was very easy to navigate and the materials were presented in a very easy to learn format. For anyone out there who is looking into becoming a professional security guard, I recommend Palladium On-Line Security Training Center® for their training needs. I will be attending Palladium in the future for my additional training requirements."

Online System Requirements

Students must have access to an Internet-connected computer or mobile device with audio (sound). Students can use Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh, mobile phones, and tablets (iOS and Android). Audio (sound) is a critical requirement as the training is fully narrated. Over half of the information presented is in audio form. Mobile device screen size must be at least 5.5-inches.
