International training programs

The IGS Academy was created to provide the IGS Security Agency with candidates willing to work in the security industry who have solid skills, knowledge and abilities.

For over 30 years, under the supervision of qualified and competent trainers, more than 30,000 students have acquired the knowledge, skills, abilities and flexibility required to graduate, obtain their security agent’s license and successfully enter the security job market as first-rate agents.

The IGS Academy has always adapted its training to reflect the evolving field of the security industry. So, in 2010, we adapted our training to meet the new criteria of the Private Security Act and make it equivalent to the training provided by school boards, so as to prepare our guarding students for the security environment (the history and development of the private security industry in Quebec, etc.), the duties of a guarding agent (writing reports, etc.), legislation and standards of behavior (use of force reasonably necessary, court appearances, etc.), emergency procedures (fire prevention, crisis management, emergency measures, etc.), and the role of a security guard.), legislation and standards of behavior (use of reasonably necessary force, court appearances, etc.), emergency procedures (fire prevention, crisis management, emergency measures and evacuation plans, occupational health and safety, WHMIS, etc.), first aid (RCAP, etc.).), first aid (CPR / AED, etc.) and tactical training (self-defense, suspect control, handcuffing and baton handling, etc.) that we feel are necessary to perform tasks safely and correctly.

A secure environment and peace of mind are the benefits that come with trained professionals. That’s why we created theIGS Academy.
