Safeguard Armor Security Training Center, Inc. (SASTCI) traces its origin as the Safeguard Group’s Training Center. It first opened its doors in 1981 with the purpose of honing the company’s security force to the highest standards of the industry.
It provides adequate education to prospective guards for them to be well-equipped in facing the challenges of their chosen profession through the Pre-Licensing Course. It also offers a Re-Training Course for experienced guards. All security personnel are required to undergo the course every two years to cope with the latest security techniques and procedures.
To further upgrade the licensed guards’ know-how, the Academy also offers the Supervisory Course to improve the competence and skill level of each enrolee, and to develop the proper mental attitude. It indoctrinates first-line and prospective supervisors as the middle management component of the Safeguard Security Group. The course further aims to make security supervisors appreciate the value of their position, understand their management function and process the technical aspects of an officers’ job. Supervisory development courses are also offered to all field officers and those earmarked for promotion.
