Northampton Community College will hold free information sessions about Act 235, the Lethal Weapons Act, Monday, June 2, 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the Fowler Family Southside Center, 511 E. Third St., Bethlehem.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania requires that any person wishing to become a certified security officer or who is privately employed and is required, as a condition of employment, to carry a lethal weapon, must participate in a 40-hour lethal weapons training program.
NCC offers classes in lethal weapons basic training and recertification. These courses have significant enrollment requirements that must be met, within a short time frame. The information session will guide participants through the process of meeting those requirements, which are set by state police.
