Abstract
Private security guard certification system was recognized as a national certification in 12. 2012 after it was first given in 2006 as a civil certification and then became a national test in 2013. Thinking it short of regulations on some of exemptible requirements as well as test-taking age limit due to the certification's specificity, the current researcher tried to present the following improvement plans. First, in taking the test, only the bottom age limit is given with no top age limit, so a regulation on its top age limit needs to be newly made so that it can select those substantially able to protect persons. Second, it can expand some of its exemptible requirements to not only police civil officials, private security guard civil officials but also military civil officials and college graduates who have taken all the courses for its primary test and have career in private security guard. Third, certain validity period can be set by standard of the date when the certification test application is accepted after retirement from related occupations so that they can maximally exert their ability in actual works. Fourth, the exemptible courses of the test must be limited to the primary test only while its hands-on test must not be exempted to meet the requirement of the ability for actual personal protection. In this manner, it's necessary that the personal protection certification system, as a national certificate, should be carefully reviewed to keep abreast with the growing civil protection industry.
