Which statement is true regarding certification requirements for security officers in Virginia?

Virginia does not require security officers to be certified in CPR, AED, or first aid.

In Virginia, the certification requirements for security officers are set by the Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS). The state requires the core security training that covers topics like powers of arrest, reporting, and proper conduct. It does not make CPR, AED, or first aid certification mandatory for obtaining or maintaining a security officer license. So the statement that these medical certifications aren’t required is correct. While CPR/AED/First Aid can be valuable and some employers or clients may require them, they are not state-mandated for security officers.

Virginia requires CPR, AED, and first aid certification.

Virginia requires CPR or AED certification, but not first aid.

Virginia requires only first aid certification.
