Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Private Detective, Private Alarm, Private Security, Fingerprint Vendor, and Locksmith Act of 2004. Replaces the experience requirements to qualify for licensure as a private security contractor. Requires that an applicant have a minimum of 5 years' experience with a licensed private security contractor agency or a proprietary security force of 30 or more persons registered with the Department, or with an in-house security unit for a corporation having 100 or more employees, with a military police or related security unit in any of the armed forces of the United States, or with a law enforcement agency of the federal government, a state, or a state political subdivision, which includes a State's Attorney's office, a public defender's office, or the Department of Corrections. Provides that the Board and the Department shall approve such experience and may accept alternative experience working with a private security contractor agency licensed in another state or for a private security contractor agency in a state that does not license such agencies if the experience is substantially equivalent to that gained working for an Illinois-licensed private security contractor agency. Provides that an applicant who has an associate degree or higher in police science or a related field or in business from an accredited college or university shall be given credit for 2 of the 3 years of the required experience, and that an applicant who has completed a non-degree military training program in police science or a related field shall be given credit for one of the 3 years of the required experience if the Board and the Department determine that such training is substantially equivalent to that received in an associate degree program. Effective immediately.

In provisions concerning qualifications for licensure as a private security contractor, provides that experience in a law enforcement agency of the federal government, a state, or a state political subdivision includes experience with the Department of Corrections. Effective immediately.
