An honest review.Ive spent 3.5 years guarding in Florida & Texas since taking this course. The education and concepts Ive learned from this place were very helpful throughout the real encounters as an officer. The teacher is a good guy doing honest work; I would ignore those spammy comments about him.

Did my 42 hour “D” License class.... Brian did a good job instructing. The course was extremely informative.. the class challenges you in all the right ways... the courses help you think “ outside the box” I got more information out of this security class than my last class, this company has other companies come in to speak with you about possibly working for their company.... the curriculum sets you up for success. Even though some of the things we learned may not be an everyday for experience, I feel like the more knowledge you have the better...Go with this company for your security license... Thank you Brian again for your time... teaching takes a lot of patience.

All my friends in the security business told me this was a good place to get my security license and I was not disappointed! Along with being a firearms/security supplies store; the experience and my expectations were blown away! Great friendly service/staff, Brian (instructor) goes into great detail about any and all aspects of the thought after licenses with experience that will exceed your expectations effortlessly. Walk in or call for some of the best local quality service NFT. Myers, Florida has to offer!

Brian does an amazing job. Helped me purchase my first firearm and obtain my concealed carry. He found the right gun for me and answered all of my questions patiently and knowledgeably. I highly recommend him for any firearm need.

Ok. I had a student both me and another black student named Veronica Jones that had just recently token an Unarmed Security Class D course with this training school. The date of the training was scheduled for Apr 6th to Apr 10th. A four day security course. I would highly advise and highly recommend that you GO TO ANOTHER training school as as of Apr 8th 2020. The said person in buisness is currently commiting an Executive Order violation because he is still offering Physical In-Class Unarmed Security Guard with him disregarding the fact the safety, well being, and health of his Students or the General Pubic are @ risk. Florida State Governor Ron DeSantis (Currently in office) HAS SPECIFICALLY ORDERED that all schooling including Florida Department Of Agriculture and Consumer Services Unarmed Security Course MUST BE conducted online. We found this out later after reading an Emergency Order issued by the Commissioner Fried that such an order would remain in effect this would remain in full force until further notice from the Department Of Agriculture and consumer services. The owner and trainer Profiles us which is illegal to do that on any citizen especially when a citizens pays good money for a course on the account of said business owner/instructor not having a policy in place regarding small issues such as being no more than five minutes late for class and must provide a service in good faith on the account of client paying for that service. He just basically told us to get up and leave on the account of him profiling us then using his power of authority to dismiss us on the account of us being of a different Race. Trains everyones else that was in the class and yells at us beligerently for small things (by the way which I have complied with his instructions when in class and have applied myself in class fully) then he kicks me and Mrs Jones out on the account that we where 5 minutes late for class and he cannot let us back class otherwise he could get in trouble with the state. He himself (the instructor) shows up late for class on 04/08/2019 and then later kicks me and a black woman out of class using the 5 minutes rule as an excuse to Defraud us for a class he only gave me and her not even a day and a half to complete. That money was specifically saved up because I was unemployeed and looking forward to get back into the Security Industry due to me being unemployeed due to the Covid-19 situation. I have spoken and plead with the Instructor to allow us to specifically retake course or offer us a refund due to the Defraudant service provided and he looked at us and said tough luck and threatened me with a Trespassing Order to leave the property...you talk about being a student in a class, paid good money to take a course, and not being given the course fully in good faith using a rather vain excuse to not continue giving us classes on the account of something that can easily be handled after you have looked up everything about us and used that as a means of getting rid of us (via illegal Profiling). The instructor is not compromising with the situation & had the intent of getting rid of us early in the first place. You want to go to a REAL Unarmed or Armed Security Guard School go to a school that actually has a Policy in deal with such small issues in a fair & consistent manner. Not for that school to get rid of you without providing a Valid Release Form to sign off due an issue between the student & instructor.Bottom line & in a nutshell the Owner/Security Guard Instructor had the Intent of having us sign some papers, pay the money In-Cash, & provide 1/2 the service.BOTTOM LINE1) Makes the course more difficult than what it is2) Yells at certain people3) He wants to enforce a rule on students and yet he fails to follow the rule himself*UPDATE 04/24/2020Wow this owner is obsessive compulsive. This guy sends a Private Investigator to take a photo of my vehicle. This Instructor surely has nothing better to do with his time then invade on the privacy of others. Be an instructor & not PI

Seeing this will be a major career change for me, I went to several security training centers in the area to inquire about getting a D and G license and what they offered. I ended up taking both classes with Brian as he was straight forward in describing all that is involved and ended up being an excellent instructor. I highly recommend Florida Security and Firearms for great training and a nice facility.

I recently completed the 40 hour D license course with Mr. Waldron. He is a highly trained and experienced security professional. If you are interested in breaking into the security profession or taking advanced classes, I would highly recommend Brian. In my opinion, he is the best in southwest Florida. He gives you an insight into the security profession that will really open your understanding of what is going on in the world. We are very fortunate to have a person like this willing to share his knowledge and experience. Also, his prices are very reasonable for the training you will receive. Thank you Mr. Waldron for what you do. Sincerely, Gary P. Zuchowski

I took the G class with Brian. He is very knowledgeable about what material is needed in order to pass the state test . I found him to be patient with students and providing every opportunity to pass both the state test and range test. He wants serious students who understand range safety.

Took the classD course and even though the days are long, Brian does everything he can do to his abilities to see that you understand the topics! Minus giving you the answers or taking the test for you, LOL. Brian is very organized, clean, and knowledgeable with instruction.

I have to admit, being who I am and how I do things have gotten me places. But if it were for the people who in some way helped along the way. I thought changing jobs and careers would be an issue. I have to thank Brian M. Waldron and his great teaching skills. Things he said in class made a difference. I am not just a security guard, I am of service to the people for which I have to protect. Not having much history of doing security work, I have grown so much. It comes across even better, when with less then a month and half doing it, the upper management in the company I work for calls me with KUDOs. I have gone from learning the ropes to being an example of true service. Florida Security and Firearms training makes the difference between going through a class to actual learning of a trade with skills that can be applied in all parts of life. You get real world experience and front line knowledge in the classes they provide. Thanks Again, Brian M. Waldron. Keep up the great work.
