Each student will receive a free basic lock pick set upon successful completion of the class.

Training is accomplished in a two eight-hour day format. The class is approved for 16 hours of Arizona POST continuing education and training credit. (We will work with agencies in other states to pursue POST approval for the course.) Each day consists of both lecture and plenty of hands-on practice, with over 200+ locks available.
