Review the Illinois 20-hour security guard training course information, IDFPR pending status, seat-time requirements, final exam controls, certificate lockout, planned tuition, and support before relying on this course for any PERC card or security guard licensing requirement.
This course is prepared for IDFPR (Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation) review under 225 ILCS 447 and 68 Ill. Adm. Code Part 1240. Enrollment, payment, certificates, and public reliance remain closed until written course approval is received.
The online course is built for asynchronous self-study delivery with sequential lessons, active seat-time tracking, knowledge checks, final-exam controls, certificate lockout, and support records.
The course requires 20 hours (1200 minutes) of active online course time. The final exam remains locked until the full seat-time requirement and lesson sequence are complete.
The final exam draws 50 questions from a 100-question bank. The passing score is 70%, and a time limit applies.
Certificates are disabled while the course is pending IDFPR approval. After approval, certificates release only after identity setup, lesson completion, active seat-time requirement, and passing the final exam.
$39.99 is the planned public price. Checkout remains disabled while the course is pending IDFPR approval.
One tuition payment covers everything the student needs to complete the course. Included: 10 lessons covering all 20 hours, practice exams with answer explanations (unlimited retakes), study sheet with key terms, Illinois statutes, side-by-side comparisons, and memory aids, lesson knowledge checks, text-to-speech guided reading, bilingual English and Spanish access, and completion certificate after passing the final exam.
This course is educational only. It does not provide legal advice, security consulting, law enforcement authority, or a guarantee that IDFPR will approve the course or issue a PERC card.
Questions about the course can be sent to admin@nationalcourseportal.com. Secure text-style portal support is configured and will open when IDFPR approval allows enrollment.
