The short answer
Arrow’s current training page links to a concealed-carry course, while ArizonaGuardCards.com is the clearer owner of guard-card and defensive-tactics training. Arrow’s page also lists defensive-tactics topics including pepper spray, handcuffing, air Taser, and impact-weapon certification. Availability, delivery format, prerequisites, equipment, legal scope, prices, dates, and certificates can change, so students should verify the current course owner and registration page before enrolling.
What to know
These courses serve different purposes. A concealed-carry course provides education but does not automatically create eligibility to possess a firearm or carry in every location. Arizona law, federal law, property rules, employment policy, and reciprocity rules can apply. Defensive-tactics training may involve physical contact and specialized equipment; students need a clear safety briefing, health and age requirements, instructor credentials, and an explanation of what any certificate represents.
Security guards should not assume a general concealed-carry or defensive-tactics class replaces DPS-required armed-guard training, annual firearms refreshers, employer authorization, or weapon-specific policy. Ask Arrow for the course outline, instructor qualifications, physical requirements, required gear, refund policy, and whether the class fulfills a state or employer requirement or is supplemental. Legal content should identify its review date and avoid individualized legal advice.
