Private security provides a rapidly expanding field of job opportunities. National statistics indicate that there are more than twice as many private security jobs available than public law enforcement jobs. Private security companies provide armed and unarmed security services and expertise to private and public clients.

Massasoit’s Private Security-Basic Certificate enhances students’ employability for entry level careers. The program also provides continuing education for individuals currently working in the field. It consists of four courses (12 credits) and can be completed in a single semester or in conjunction with other degree programs at the college.

Some students complete this certificate while working towards an associate degree in criminal justice or business.
