In the program, you will be exposed to courses that give you an understanding of how society and its institutions work and develop the skills to prepare you to enter the exciting field of protection, security, and investigations. Through a combination of theory and dynamic simulation, you will be exposed to a range of strategies and investigation tactics that will include physical surveillance and technology-enhanced practices.

Graduates of the Protection, Security and Investigation program may also qualify for a Provincial Security Guard License and Private Investigator License, which can be valuable points of entry into the world of work.
