Illinois Security Training
Illinois 20-Hour Security Guard Training (PERC Card)
Illinois's 20-hour basic security guard training, online and self-paced. Built to meet 225 ILCS 447/25-20 and 68 Ill. Adm. Code 1240.505. 10 lessons, active seat-time tracking, final exam, and a completion record your employer can use to certify your basic training under Illinois rules. $29.99 with price-match review before payment. Employer/agency certifies completion — this is not a PERC card, and fingerprinting, background check, and IDFPR registration remain separate.

Price-Match Review
Found a lower public price? We will match it.
If you find a lower current public all-in mandatory cost for an equivalent Illinois Security Guard online course, submit the details for manual review.
The lower price must be a current public cost, available to the same student, for an equivalent approved Illinois Security Guard online course serving the same requirement with the same essential duration, delivery method, certificate path, and reporting value when reporting applies.
The comparison uses the student's all-in mandatory cost before course completion, including state fees, assessment fees, mandatory certificate fees, mandatory processing, mandatory reporting, and any other required charge.
Private coupon codes, expired promotions, affiliate or private-link prices, typo prices, wholesale rates, group rates, bundles, conditional discounts, nonpublic links, offers made to manipulate the review, hidden-fee offers, and nonequivalent course formats are not included.
Qualified requests are reviewed manually and, if approved, matched at the verified price before purchase.
National Course Portal may ask for provider URLs, screenshots, checkout-page proof, timestamps, fee details, or other reasonable verification and may deny requests that cannot be verified, change before review, are unavailable to ordinary public students, or do not represent a good-faith equivalent public offer.
One price-match review is allowed per enrollment. Review does not apply retroactively to completed purchases.
National Course Portal reserves the right to decline a request if the verified all-in cost is below our cost or appears intended to exploit the review.
The request must include a public verifiable competitor URL that a reviewer can open in an incognito window with no logged-in session, no affiliate code, no coupon code, and no private parameter. Screenshots without a URL, private links, login-gated pages, and bot-scraped prices are not accepted.
Free resources, free government courses, guides, PDFs, videos, forums, partial simulators, study materials, offers without a comparable certificate, offers without comparable reporting, and nonequivalent course formats are not equivalent paid offers for price matching.
The quoted price must be live and publicly available at the time National Course Portal's reviewer opens the URL. If the price changed, expired, or disappeared between submission and review, the request is closed without a match.
Aggregate per-student cap: no more than 2 price matches will be approved for the same student, account, email address, or payment method within any rolling 365-day window, summed across all courses.
Approved matches are valid for 48 hours from the approval notification. If the student does not complete checkout inside that window, the quote expires and a new request with a current verifiable public price is required.
