RECENT TESTIMONIAL:
Secret #1: There are 6 different PPO tests.

So you need to be prepared for all 6 versions.

study
a lot of information.

ANOTHER RECENT TESTIMONIAL!
Read these 7 secrets and the strong question that follows them:
1. The State recently updated the PPO license test. 2. The State recently made an
important rule change about badge shapes. 3. The State recently made a major law
change about PPO insurance. 4. The State recently added new
topics to the PPO license test. 5. The State, quietly not long ago, began denying the use of TWO long-time
popular private center seals on PPO badge design approval requests. 6. The State recently put into a law a surprise
requirement regarding PPO firearm carry. 7. Our 2021 package is more than a pound heavier than last year's
becausethere is so much new
material for 2021 study--
it includes the 2017 through 2020 PPO law changes. So then why do some people try
to sell
you PPO material from last year and even older
but tell you it is 'current'?!?!
This GIANT package uses tests,
repeated and modified key questions,
photos, reversals of answers-to-questions,
scenarios reusing key knowledge
and more to try to keep key
facts knowledge into your memory.
Many people need to see a question
and its answer
multiple
times or
from different wording before it
'sticks'; from many many interviews
we have learned which needs most
repeating
or issued variants--
it is part of our success secrets!
And, you will need to study the contents
multiple times to increase your chance of
passing: remember, there is not 1 'PPO test'--
YOU ARE STUDYING
FOR THE
MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF THE PPO TEST!
RECENT TESTIMONIAL!
RECENT TESTIMONIAL:
We include info about
the firearm-carry
psych test required
since June 2018.
(The assessment is named the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16pf),
which is a personality test used in various settings including employers
of protective services personnel (e.g., police officers, firefighters and security guards).
However, scoring standards were established specific to the legal requirement
of appropriate judgment, restraint and self-control for the purposes of
carrying and using a firearm while performing armed security guard duties.)
RECENT TESTIMONIAL!
Are either of these two
often-mentioned
current PPO
'specialties' part of your plans?
We can share some good --and bad--
that a new PPO may not be aware of!
RECENT TESTIMONIAL:
"Your material covered everything. I finished in 49 minutes.
The test lady said 'Are you sure you want to submit?'
because I had more than an hour left.
I said 'Yes, I'm confident'. I passed.
My English was not good but I passed the exam
because your material is tremendously outstanding." - RT

What nice thingshe had to say! "I had failed the PPO test 8 times.
The best score I ever got was a 64%.
I am from Pakistan, so English is not my first language.
My year was running out in two weeks, meaning I would need to
pay
$500 plus fingerprints to apply again if I didn't pass soon.
I had used a power-point download to study
that had cost $100,
it didn't even cover 10 questions
from any of the eight tests I had taken.
So with a week left, I got your 15-pound
package that included the new topics.
I saw so many items I had been tested on before
and I saw I had guessed the wrong answers.
Your package was great, really good--
I only wish I had gotten it earlier!
You have a really great package, super info. I passed in only 35 minutes.
Tell everyone to avoid the bad powerpoint
someone is trying to sell (WE DO!).
I would have passed the first time
if I had used your PPO package."
RECENT TESTIMONIAL!
ANSWER THIS INSURANCE
SECRET QUESTION:
How much do you want to pay
for your required first year's
$1,000,000
insurance certificate--
$400? $900? $1770? $2540? $3960? And do you want to break it up into payments?
Ask us the secrets!
RECENT TESTIMONIAL:
"I wish I had found you sooner.
I paid $1000 to a guy who runs a security training business
because he said he could personally prepare
me to pass the PPO license test.
He had his own notes. But I failed the PPO test 4 times.
There was nothing from his training
that was on any of the tests I took.
Then I had to pay another $500 to apply again.
Your big PPO package was just what I needed!" - CI
Most people don't know this:
There are many versions of the PPO license examination.
You need to know the answers to the questions to all
of the tests to be able to answer the test assigned to you.
Eventually you will need to get a million-dollar PPO insurance certificate.
It can cost you $400 or $900 a year --or $2000-- or $4000!
It can usually be broken into payments.
Don't over-pay: we include the secrets on pricing!
What nice thingshe had to say! "I only had one week to study your giant package.
My experience was military.
I easily passed the State's newly-revised
current PPO testing today.
I was done in 40 minutes-- the test lady asked
me twice if I was sure I was done!
As I tested, the testing allowed me to mark any to
come back and double-check, I clicked on 7.
There was NO question I couldn't answer.
Only one answer even required any real choice.
If I had taken the test two weeks ago, I would have failed very badly
Your package was an incredible tool. It was very easy to learn from."
Newly included for 2021:We have PPO Timed Tests!
A series of 7 mini-tests that must be answered in 5 minutes or less each.

Chief Gates used our study material for testing and for his business;
we have helped more than a dozen other Chiefs of Police too!
Chief, it was an honor to assist you. Rest in peace.
The state recently updated the test: So why do some people try to sell you material from last year?!?!

A success story to share! Her dad has operated a PPO business for a long time, and she wanted to take over.
English is not the primary language in the family homes.
She had failed the PPO license test 20 times. TWENTY FAILS. Besides paying a re-test fee 16 times,
she had also paid the state $500 X 3 times = $1500
just in application fees (your application is only
good for a year, then you must reapply).
She tried 'study help' sources that never
helped her to get a passing score. 20 fails.
Then she got our big GUARANTEED PASS PPO study package.
5 days later, she easily passed! She called us when she left the test center and said: "I passed easily! There was not one question I wasn't prepared for.
Thank you!"
You get this when you pass!

NEW STUDY SECTION!
PPOs and required Unemployment Insurance
What a load ofbull-sh**! A guy who wanted a PPO license said to us:
"Help! I was told by a guy that there is a
simple secret to passing the PI or PPO test.
He said it is that your mindset needs
to be on putting employee-needs first.
I took the test and failed. So I can tell you:
that advice was BS garbage."
Yes, that indeed is 'BS garbage'.
Not only it is poor advice, it's worthless advice. We would burst out laughing except that
we know that bad info has hurt others. You showed us that bizarre 'advice',
so we know you weren't confused--
even the example given about it can be shown to be flawed.
There is only one secret to passing the PPO test: have a lot of exact KNOWLEDGE. You must know so many topics,
so many specifics, so many exact details. And old 2014 material won't do it--
there were many many test changes through 2020.
We've helped more than 2000 PPOs to pass the CA test--
including the new 2021 PPO testing study.
Nationwide,
at least 2 persons use our help to pass testing!
TESTIMONIAL:"I knew the answer to every question on my PPO test today, thanks to your great material. And thank you for the updates."- NZ

We have a 1400-page 15-pound paper package of
PROVEN study for the current California PPO test.
Hired by BSIS for a past overhaul of a BSIS licensing test,
ONLY WE know how the questions and answers are developed.
Study ours anywhere, wherever you go. More than 2000 PPOs have passed and/or
started their PPO businesses with our help!
Know why most test-takers failed the PPO test?
It's because the state-supplied
'study book' helps with only a few questions.
THE SECRET: It is an 'experience-based exam'--
you are expected to know much of the PPO business already!
Of the several different versions of the PPO test,
these are the true details:
'Security Services' will now be approximately 14% of exam items.
'Personnel' will now be approximately 16% of exam items.
'Management A: Records' will now be approximately 18% of exam items.
'Management B: Employees' will now be approximately 11% of exam items.
'Management C: Legal Requirements'

'Business Administration B: Service Agreement'
will now be approximately 7% of exam items.
'Screening' will now be approximately 10% of exam items.
'Training' will now be approximately 8% of exam items.
TESTIMONIAL:"Your material helped me pass in less than a half hour. Here's an interesting tidbit for you: my friend's wife paid $100 to receive some PPO study questions by Internet. I looked at 20 of them-- there were 3 clearly wrong answers." (info as shared, yes they were wrong answers)- BA
Another good PPO test success story! She is 73 years old.

Fully updated for 2021 study!
Recently, a PPO applicant failed his 120-minute
Private Patrol Operator
PPO
license test for the third time.
There are many different tests,
and he had only prepared for about 100 questions, instead of studying for the many of the different PPO tests. (That's like studying for the DMV driver's license written test by only reading
the first 15 pages of their DMV study book instead of all 87 pages. Bad!)
Then, after studying our big fully-updated-for-2020/2021 affordable 1300-pages-nearly-1500-study-question-variants-with-answers
material (including more than 300 pages of supporting datasheets with graphics,

he re-took the test, which was a 4th different test--
passing in about 30 minutes!
UPDATE: a week later, another person
used our material to pass in 25 minutes!
And another did it in 40-some minutes!

which the
PPO
has been hired or engaged
to protect or watch (7582.1.b).
5) Another secret:
Some multi-service PPOs earn $$$$ by also offering other services related to protection:
'Collection Agency', and/or 'Polygraph Lie-Detection'. No additional license is needed in CA for either of them!
So yes, some initial related data for these is also included.

Are you goingfrom police-to-private?
More than 500 persons who have
law enforcement backgrounds have used our
PPO package to pass their PPO license examinations.
Our PPO packages have been used by police officers, detectives,
corrections officers, federal agents, deputies, military,
even chiefs of police! Active or retired from
probably
every city-county-state-or-federal agency you can name. Let us share some 'transition secrets' with you!
We hear the same thing, every week: "The PPO material from the State didn't help me at all".
- or - "The PPO stuff the State sent me was only good for less than 10 of the 100 questions".
- or - "I have failed the PPO test 4 times, and each time the test was completely different".
We know what you're saying, and here's why-it-is-what-it-is: The State is here to regulate you, NOT to educate you.
They provide you information on things that they can fine ($) a PPO for.
They do NOT help you with the majority of the test.
It is an 'experienced-based' examination.
Most of the PPO test is about knowledge you supposedly have from not only
security work, but also from running a business and from being an employer.
The truth is: you do not know these things, causing most to fail.
Why does one new PPO pay $400 for a year ofmillion-dollar insurance, but another PPO pays $2000 and another pays $3600
yet they are no different than the first PPO?
Secrets for saving $$$$ on PPO liability
insurance! See our #146 way below.
BONUS: Pass with our material, we can make you a simple webpage FREE! (If you don't have a webpage, the public & businesses can't find you to hire you.)
5) Finally, other 'good fit' for and 'money makers' for multi-service PPOs are
'Process Serving' (the hand-delivery of legal papers), and 'Fingerprinting'.
Yes, data is included to make you aware of these important
services ones that you can make available to the public!

The PPO business and knowledge package includes a 'Badge & Shoulder Patch design kit'! Sample badge and shoulder patch design artwork outline 'blanks',
required for you to complete and submit to BSIS for
them to approve before they will issue you a PPO
license.
BSIS does not provide you these or any help or samples for this,
but they will NOT issue your PPO license if you don't
do it right. We provide the simple types of design outlines BSIS is expecting--
you fill
in the blanks with the required information. Use the black & white badge blanks for practice,
then use the color badge blanks to mail to BSIS.
Included are samples of completed artwork outlines to help you design yours. INCLUDED:
Step-By-Step instructions to help you
design your PPO badge on computer!
BADGE TIP 1: Recently, BSIS began requesting your
patch and badges designs be
'professionally done', 'exact size', and in COLOR.
We include your final badge design blanks in about true-size and in color. BADGE TIP 2: Recently, BSIS says company name
and an identifying
number only-- no more 'titles'. BADGE TIP 3: BSIS is no longer approving
one popular shape of security guard badge! BADGE TIP 4: BSIS is no longer approving
two popular center seals on a guard badge!
We also include a copy of a badge DISapproval some PPOs receive.
Learn from their mistake-- get your badge and patch approved the first time.
FREE COMPUTERIZED PPO
BADGE DESIGN SAMPLE!
Here's a fun thing to try, and it's FREE.
1. What do you want to call your PPO company?
2. What type badge do you like?
(An eagle-top shield? A star badge?)
3. What color badge? (Silver or gold?)
4. What center seal would you use on your badge?
(Watch out for the new restrictions!)
5. What badge number would you use on your own badge?
Call us with these answers, and we will quickly do a
badge design for you and will send it to your cell phone. You can use this design to submit to BSIS for your approval.
PPO test secret #2:
Most test-takers do the worst on
these two PPO test topics: MANAGEMENT and BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Management A:Records Management B:Employees Management C: Legal Requirements
Business Administration A:Supervision Business Administration B: Service Agreements
We help prepare you for these-- and much more!

Another note: as a licensed PPO, the author/editor of this package shot two armed robbers in a gun battle while working-- he surviving that
situation
and the follow-up steps brings you information available nowhere else! We don't give you the exact test questions, word for word, of the 6 PPO tests, but we have even BETTER than that!
The success record of our clients for 20 years proves that our many years of actual PPO experience
and teaching PPO and the following of the information provided by the state all can produce a guarantee!
The PPO package now includes a 22-page
'Sexual Harassment In The Workplace' section!
Important not just because there are several license test questions
about sexual harassment, but also because this can be a source
of lawsuits against licensed California Private Patrol Operators.
Again, YES, there ARE questions about sexual harassment on the PPO license test!
Including datasheets of: --What is Sexual Harassment?
--Examples of Sexual Harassment --When is the Employer liable for Sexual Harassment?
--Methods to reduce or prevent Sexual Harassment --What is 'Quid Pro Quo' Sexual Harassment?
--What is 'Hostile Workplace Sexual Harassment'? --Federal government-issued information about sexual harassment

TRUTH: Most of us started a PPO business to make money.
So here's a scary truth: only ONE person who offers to help you with
the
PPO test has ever earned a living from a PPO business. That is ME. If someone hasn't done that, then how dare they say that they teach it?!
Offering guard and bodyguard services in California made me a lot of money.
I've sold hundreds of thousands of dollars of regular guard work in CA, but think about this--
Not bragging, but proud that only I can say: NO other CA PPO has received advancepayments of $50,000 AND $100,000 for personal bodyguard work, IN ADVANCE of doing the work. I have. NO OTHER CA PPO!
Why is this important? Because only I can share with you some tips that might someday help this happen for you too.
I have arranged more PPO sales and service than anyone else who says that they can assist you with becoming a PPO.
And no other PPO has ever directly contacted as many celebrities as I have-- I might share some of those secrets too!

Recently, BSIS introduced the 'Veterans Come First' program.
In order to assist veterans in their transition from military service
to civilian employment, the Bureau of Security and Investigative
Services (BSIS) has implemented the Veterans Come First Program.
This program offers priority services to veteran applicants and
assists
veterans by leveraging their transferable military experience and
training in order to meet all or part of the Bureau’s licensing qualifications.
The BSIS Veterans Come First Program provides the following support for veteran applicants:
Provides veteran applicants with their own personal BSIS staff person to support them through the licensing process.
Provides veteran applicants with direct line telephone numbers and email contact information.
Provides veteran applicants priority in the licensure process.
Email or telephone notification as soon as the veteran’s application is approved by the Bureau for licensure.
For Private Patrol Operator and Private Patrol Operator Qualified Manager:
Military veterans who have at least 1 year of experience
(2,000 hours)
working as a guard, watchperson, sentry, MP,
or equivalent, are eligible
to take the licensing Private Patrol Operator
and/or
Private Patrol Operator Qualified Manager test(s).
You can receive reimbursement from the Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) for many of the licensing and certification tests the State of California
administers. The PPO license testing fee has been approved for VA reimbursement.
Program details included.
PPO test secret #4:
Many test-takers have a tough time
with this type of answer choices: 'Choose the BEST answer'.
You might find questions where more
than one of the answer choices is correct.
But one choice is a little better than the others.
We help prepare you for these-- and much more!
Materials also include a recent change
to
employee-law that a PPO must know!
TESTIMONIAL:"I am from Zimbabwe, Africa. I failed the PPO test, then I got your package. and I passed in 45 minutes. It was so easy thanks to your material. Thank you so so much!" - MM
More than 300 datasheets with graphics enhance our more-than-15-pound

We have helped more than 5000 persons nationwide pass their states' license tests; more than 300 in the past year!
"I failed once, badly. Then studied your material for a weekend, and passed the test in about 40 minutes. I am so happy. I still can't believe it!" - MW
A good PPO test success story! Recently, a PPO license applicant called us late on a Saturday afternoon.
English is not his primary language. He is from India.
He had failed the licensing test nine months ago, getting a score of 50% (a bad fail). His year-to-complete was going to run out in 2 weeks, requiring a new application and $500 again.
He had his final-chance test scheduled for next Thursday.
He couldn't answer even one of the sample questions we asked of him.
At 10pm that night, he began a 400-mile drive to come
pick up our big Guaranteed-Pass PPO Knowledge package on Sunday.
A long drive-- in a van, with his pregnant wife!
He drove back home 400 miles, arriving home Sunday night. He called us Thursday morning and said: "I passed easily! There was not one question I wasn't prepared for. Thank you!"
The NEW 'BSIS Security Guard Guide"!
BSIS rewrote their 'Security Guard Guide'. Now longer and more detailed, it includes the recent changes to laws related to PPOs and their guards.
Many changes are from the Penal Code 16000 section.
SERIOUS WARNING: Never pay for PPO license test help
without a written guarantee
AND used more than 1500 PPOs who have used our help to pass and/or start their businsses! We assist people EVERY month who tried to pass with 'other methods' and failed.

we can help you towards getting your $ back for paying them for a 'defective product or service'.
Get ready for a surprisepaperwork headache: but we help you with it!
Did you know this? The State of California requires that you use a company business name.
Depending on what company name you choose for your new license,
you might be required to also pay to file documents with your local county.
Next you have to pay to have the information published in a newspaper!
And it must all be done again and again, every five years.
Our package includes a 25-page section with the information you
need to deal with this-- or how you can completely avoid it instead. Includes important details-- and examples of vendors and actual forms used.
Every month we hear "I wish I had known this secret before I picked a company name".
We have helped more than 300 persons to pass their states' license tests in the past year!
Our anti-copy 'ghostprinting' of dark embedded-word watermarking and stamps on most pages helps us fight piracy!

--68 to 71 or more % required to pass (NOTE: different PPO tests have different score requirements).
--done on a computer.
--Approximately half of the applicants fail the written exam.
--Multiple versions of the test (fail, and you are later re-tested with a completely different test).
Just like at DMV, you need to know all the test topics to pass whichever test they give you. TESTIMONIAL:"I passed my PPO test last Tuesday. There was only one question I'm not sure I got right. Thank you!" - TJ
--You receive your exam results immediately at the
end
of the test, with a face-photo of you printed on it. If you pass, you will be told 'Pass', with no score given.
If you fail, you will be given a numerical score, but they will NOT tell you exactly which questions you answered wrong. When you come back for a 're-test', you'll get a very different test.
You will be getting a different license # format than older PPOs.
If you get a CA PPO license in early 2021,
you will be about 6-digit PPO license #12092x-#1210xx (PPO license #12091x was issued in late-2020).
We are often asked by new PPOs: "Why is my new PPO license number so different than other PPOs I know?"
It because BSIS changed from its long-standard 5-digit PPO
license format in 2016 to a new 6-digit PPO license format.
In the middle of January 2016 BSIS issued its last 5-digit PPO license number, PPO1812x.
In the last week of January 2016 BSIS issued its first 6-digit PPO license number, PPO11967x.
If they hadn't changed to the new format, you would be receiving a 18xxx number instead).
Package includes the unexpected recent changes to whatPPO badge types & wording will NOT be approved!
As alicensed PPO, you can conduct your employee's mandatory training
and their mandatory annual 8-hour 'refreshers'.
You must follow the state's short outline, but you must
come up with the content to fill 4 and 8 hour classes.
You can teach it for free or you can charge for it.
We can help with extended outlines and attendee handouts.
Note: the PPO must keep proof of training in every employee's file, and each
training certificate must have a serial number (among other requirements)

A week or so after you pass, you will get an invoice from BSIS to pay for your license.
But there is a surprise in that same envelope, that most PPOs are not expecting! We include quick-help for this surprise, so you can mail
off your envelope within minutes-- instead of sometime later.
---OUCH! Can you name 2 things a PPO can
do that can bring the PPO $5000 fines each?---
--When you pass the licensing exam, and then you pay for the license,
you become both a 'Private Patrol Operator' and a 'Qualified Manager'.
---OUCH! If a PPO's client asks the security officer on duty to
'Go wash and gas up my car', what should the security officer do?---
Includes the real BSIS decisionon use of TASERS! Don't believe what some guard training schools tell you.
Even 'Taser instructors' have given wrong information about this.

Another 'secret' for you, from a 20-year teacher of BSIS topics:
Multiple-choice is a good way to test somebody,
but it is the very very WORST way to study! Don't worry-- we know the best way.
To protect you:
For some non-opinion topics whose answers can not be verified in the
written statutes, we contact BSIS's policy staff to verify the correct answer! NOTE: this is not the same as the BSIS 800/916 consumer-help phone staff.
Although they do their best, they have given BAD incorrect
information that is the opposite of what the policy staff advises.
Two such documented examples are about 'badges on belts',
'a PPO working as a guard for another PPO's company',
and 'Titles or Ranks on badges'!
The help-line gave what amounted to wrong old-wives-tales on both,
while the policy staff gave the opposite --and accurate-- answers.
Need the nearly 1400-pages nearly-1500 business knowledge sample question variants
with verified correct answers, and the
PPO Quick Tests, the practice Final Exam,
the more than 300 question-supporting
datasheets with graphics, the Badge & Patch designs,
Topic Tests, Quick Quizes, a Master Knowledge Test, a practice Final Exam,
and about 40 other key items?
Then call 818 883-6969 for the more-than-15-pound PPO Power Package!
Do you have a law-enforcement background?
The big package not only prepares you for the California
Private Patrol
Operator license test, but it also helps 'level the playing field' for you
to soon match PPOs with their years of private experience.
Look at the 1 to 200+ list that starts less than a
foot below this that shows all of the items available.
It would take you many many years of private practice to gather that knowledge! Plus, we can help you make your first PPO webpage: FREE.
And we can help you design a PPO advertising postcard: FREE.
Many of those who have used our packages came from a
police, sheriff, or corrections career.
We have assisted from all ranks,
from Officer or Deputy and Detective through Chief of Police!
We questions!
Many who complain about failing this test say there was 'answers open to opinion'!
We agree-- tests should use questions of definite answers, never opinions.
What if your experience gives you a different opinion on a
question than the test writer has? YOU get it wrong then!
Oh well, be prepared to possibly answer a few 'opinion' questions.
Knowing our material will give you a 'heads up' on this type of question too.
Another good PPOtest success story! His primary language is Arabic.

140. --If a PPO wants to provide guards to work on certain school properties

Insurance price secrets!
146. --Here is an insurance mystery.
PPO John and PPO Bob both get their PPO licenses the same day.
They both plan to run the same exact unarmed security company. Liability insurance is now required of all PPOs.
They both fill out the same million-dollar liability insurance application.
But John is charged $2000 more for the base price than Bob was!
If their businesses are identical, why was Bob quoted $800 and John was charged $2800?
And how did another PPO get insured for $400 per year?!
We know the 'secret'!
On the application, there is usally two dozen 'types of security service'
that they ask you to check off if you plan to offer each.
Some of those choices are secretly considered to be 'low risk',
some choices are secretly considered to be 'high risk'.
Some of those risk-ratings don't make sense to many PPOs.
Just clicking one wrong choice can add $1000 to your base insurance price.
Some applicants click everything, even what they won't be doing.
We have the secret list that shows which
often is low-risk and which is high-risk . . . .

TESTIMONIAL: "Calling to thank you-- 5 minutes ago, I passed! I failed it before. I got your package late last night, studied this morning, and tested at noon today. I was able to correctly answer every question. Thank you!" - AL
Right after passing his PPO test, he took the time to send these nice words! "I'm in a hotel in Hayward, so happy! I just came back from my PPO license test.
I finished in 40 minutes, thanks to your study package.
There was nothing that your material didn't cover.
There was not one question I didn't know the answer to.
Brother, I must have gotten about 100% correct. Thank you!"
Note: the nearly-1400-pages nearly 1500 study question variants, the 200+ question-supporting data
pages with
graphics, and the PPO Quick Tests are included in the new more-than-15-pound PPO Power Package!
TESTIMONIAL:"I took the exam last Friday after getting your study material, and passed. It was a lot easier than the first time (when I failed), a lot easier. Thank you!" - CM
Written and compiled by a person who has been hired by BSIS
for the re-write of a BSIS license test, thus learning some 'secrets'
behind their 'answer choices' and other test-question ideas! --also: author/editor has taught PI, PPO,
and other BSIS at schools since 1991,
and has
easily passed both the PI and PPO
qualified manager examinations himself!--
Another note: as a licensed PPO, the author/editor of this
package shot two armed robbers in a gun battle while working--
he surviving
that situation
and dealing with the follow-up steps
brings you
information available nowhere else! We don't give you the exact test questions, word for word,
of the 6 PPO tests, but we have BETTER than that!
The success record of our clients for 20 years proves
that our many years of actual PPO experience
and teaching PPO and the following of the information
provided by the state all can produce a guarantee!
Having been actually hired by BSIS for the re-write of a
past BSIS test gives us insight NOT available elsewhere. We don't 'give you the answers' to the 6 PPO tests--
we TEACH you the important information
you need to operate a PPO business,
which is exactly what you need to know to PASS the test! Additionally, author has a law degree and 3 years of law school,
allowing him to explain the legal portions to you more simply than others.
TESTIMONIAL: "It's no wonder so many people write you. Your materials were ultra-professional. Your service and delivery was FAST. I passed easily. And a month later, you were helping me set up my business and get my first clients. Thanks very much." - RD
Another good PPO test success story! He is from Nigeria-- strong accent, hard to understand.
He failed the PPO test. Then he got our PPO package.
Like the GUARANTEE says: then he passed!
TESTIMONIAL: "I passed with flying colors after using your material. I came from a non-traditional background to this license. Your material was 'night & day different' than what I had first got from (his name given but omitted here); I could not have even come close to passing using his minimal set of 'questions', of which one even said 'not sure of correct answer'!." - (PPO's initials omitted, as we are waiting to see if like others who failed with (name omitted)'s 'help', he then lists this PPO as 'Passed with his help' even though others failed with his 'help' and then came to us)
In the last year, two big changes affected PPOs.
We include both of them.
SERIOUS WARNING: Never pay for PPO license test help without a written guarantee! We assist people EVERY month who tried to pass with 'other methods' and failed.
If you have wasted money on worthless junk that didn't help you to pass the PPO test,
we can help point you towards getting your money back
from them for selling you a 'defective product or service'.
Avoid the clowns.
Avoid the phonies.

TESTIMONIAL: "I passed at the Sacramento location yesterday. They don't give you your pass score, but I did fine. Your 'secret' about PPO business proposals-- I am very glad I learned that as I needed it for the test-- I never would have known about that! And like you said, sometimes they ask the same question again but re-worded." - SJ
Our PPO Package received an unsolicited & critical 'Accuracy Audit'.
Line-by-line, every part was analyzed and accuracy-checked TWICE by a neutral PPO company.
Only one question-answer was challenged--
and that answer of ours was found to be 100% correct!
This attention-to-detail is why those who know our study material are so successful.
NEVER USE ANY PPO STUDY HELP THAT DOESN'T HAVE
A PASS GUARANTEE PROVEN BY MORE THAN 2000 PPOs!
See our simple written conditional guarantee way above.
TESTIMONIAL: "God bless you! You are the first person I am calling-- I just came out of the test with my PASS receipt that I am going to frame! I had failed the PPO tests SIX times, then I found you." - GK
Another good PPO testsuccess story! Punjabi is his primary language.
He failed the PPO test badly.
He got our Guaranteed-Pass jam-packed study package, and then PASSED. When he called to thank us, he said: "There was nothing I couldn't answer."
Simulated Testing for PPO
Also optionally available are our Internet

thePIgroup (www.thePIgroup.com)
pioneered the use of online investigative
interactive
training and 'webinars':

Internet
amongst the PI and PPO professions)
TESTIMONIAL: "I failed a few times. Then I got your material. I passed." - GE
Helping you from the start.
Unlike 'seminars' or on-line training
or weak pretend
on-line testing or a silly
'PDF download'
where
paid attendance is secretly nearly 100% profit for the seller,
the 'profit' on this consulting and these big
packages
and their shipping is very minimal.
However, paper material to have in your hands to read,
read again, and read
again several more times, is far more effective than seminars or on-line training!
After reimbursing us for the cost of the printing of all the pounds of paper material (Did you know that print shops charge us sales tax on every page printed?!)
and for the binders and for the dividers and their tax and for the
packing and for the box and the shipping cost of such heavy packages,
there is not much left over from what you paid us for the consultation,
not to mention the hours of assembly and value of the advice and knowledge involved.
After a valuable consultation plants the critical seeds and sets your focus,
having supporting material in your hands to read and review anytime
is far more memory-sticking than seminars or on-line training!
Another good PPO test success story!
"I passed the PPO test in 15 minutes. Thanks again".
--MB
TESTIMONIAL: "Wow, you made it so easy to remember the information. I had failed twice before finding you. You made it really easy to study. Thank you again." - RR
Another good PPO test success story! He is from the Fiji Islands, in the south Pacific Ocean, near Australia.
English is not his primary language.
He failed the PPO license test 7 times.
He failed 4 times, then he had to pay $500 to apply again.
Then he failed 3 more times.
He found out about our package the night before his 8th test was scheduled for. Quick help was provided. And he passed that next morning!
BEWARE OF USING THE WRONG MATERIAL TO PREPARE WITH! Blunt and to the point: there is some worthless 'junk' out there,
promoted as 'helpful for PPO tests'. Buyer beware.
We have assisted many who failed after trying alternate choices. OUCH! Some admit that you can fail even if you learn their material!!!
Our material includes 'trigger questions' (related sample questions that
are similar to but not actually connected to any of the multiple PPO tests,
planted within as to later prove plagiarism-- catches our competitors every time.
We have successfully shut down 3 plagiarizers-- and they paid our legal bills! We pay $$$ for valid information that helps to punish those that try to rip us off.
Every year, another 'copy-cat' appears-- two have lost their CA licenses because of it.
BSIS sees it as 'a fraudulent or dishonest act' to steal material. Thank you, BSIS!
We print out their websites each week, as to document the copy-cat changes too.
We assist people EVERY month who tried to pass with 'other methods' and failed.
If you have wasted money on worthless junk that didn't help you to pass the PPO test,
we can help you towards getting your money back for purchasing a 'defective product'.
We have assisted more than 4500 persons nationwide to pass their states' license tests, more than 300 in the past year:
nobody else can prepare you for all versions of the PPO license tests! INSIST ON A WRITTEN GUARANTEE
BEFORE PAYING FOR PPO LICENSE HELP!
Call us to solve the 'mystery' about the special-colored
piece of scratch-paper you will be issued at the test-- why there are different colors! 818-883-6969
From a 30-year teacher of California PPO license test questions and California PPO business help:
WORST possible study methods:
1) Seminars, and 2) studying with multiple-choice questions (low retention percentage, too many words per actual needed knowledge)
BEST possible study method:
reading Question/Answer, Question/Answer, Question/Answer, . . . (direct to memory, higher word priority)

Testimonials
We've received hundreds from satisfied licensees! MORE EVERY WEEK! We have helped more than 4500 persons nationwide to pass
their states' license tests, more than 300 in the past year. Nobody else has even helped 30 persons
to pass this test in the last year! We have persons who first failed after using 'alternate' help,
then the persons wisely used our material to pass the next time.
But later the 'alternate help' claimed to have helped them to pass!
Yes, there is a guy whose material has let his 'students' fail the PPO test,
yet when they passed later after using OUR material next,
he then claimed them as his successes! (OUCH!)
Good news: he has removed all his advertising from YouTube,
so perhaps this will stop happening.
TESTIMONIAL: "I got some sample questions from another guy-- that included some wrong answers! Then I got your material." - SL
Here is some information from the State's website:
(these are not items for the test)
Private Patrol Operator or Qualified Manager
Requirements for Licensure
A private patrol operator operates a business that protects persons or property or prevents theft. In order for a company to seek licensure as a Private Patrol Operator, the Qualified Manager (see below) must have passed the licensing examination. In addition, each individual applicant, partner, or corporate officer must meet the following requirements:
Be 18 or older.
Undergo a criminal history background check through the California Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); and
Have committed no offense or violation of the Private Security Services Act that would be grounds for license suspension or revocation
To apply for a company license, submit the $700 company license fee, two recent passport-quality photographs and a Private Patrol Operator Live Scan form signed by the Live Scan Operator. A $32 DOJ fingerprint processing fee and a $19 FBI fingerprint processing fee must be paid at the Live Scan site for each applicant, partner, and officer. Send your application to the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, P.O. Box 989002, West Sacramento, CA 95798-9002. (A Qualified Manager who is also an applicant, partner, or officer is not required to send in another set of fingerprints or pay another fingerprint processing fee.)
Insurance
Since 1/1/2015, all PPOs have been required to have a $1,000,000 liability insurance policy. Before that, only Private Patrol Operators who employed armed security guards were required to have $1 million in insurance. The policy is to be $500,000 for one loss due to bodily injury or death, and $500,000 for one loss due to injury or destruction of property. You get insurance after you pass the test but before the license is issued.
Qualified Manager
An individual, partnership, or corporation seeking a license as a Private Patrol Operator must specify in the application the individual who will manage the business on a day-to-day basis.
This individual is called the Qualified Manager. (An owner, partner, or corporate officer may serve as the Qualified Manager, or may hire someone to fill this role.) To be eligible to apply for licensure as a Qualified Manager, you must meet the following requirements:
Be 18 or older.
Undergo a criminal history background check through the DOJ and the FBI.
Have committed no offense or violation of the Private Security Services Act that would be grounds for license suspension or revocation.
Have one year of experience (2,000 hours) as a patrolperson, guard, or watchperson, or the equivalent.
Pass a two-hour multiple-choice examination covering the Private Security Services Act and other rules and regulations, business knowledge, emergency procedures, security functions, and use of deadly weapons. A copy of the Private Security Services Act is available through this link: www.bsis.ca.gov/laws/pssact.shtml
Submit a completed application with two recent passport-quality photographs, a $500 application and examination fee and a Private Patrol Operator Live Scan form signed by the Live Scan Operator. A $32 DOJ fingerprint processing fee and a $19 FBI fingerprint processing fee must be paid at the Live Scan site for each applicant, partner, and officer. Send your application to the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, P.O. Box 989002, West Sacramento, CA 95798-9002.
To request an application for licensure as a Private Patrol Operator or qualified manager,
call the Department of Consumer Affairs at (800) 952-5210, or visit our Web site: www.bsis.ca.gov.

A SECRET:
Seminars, or studying on-line, is an ineffective waste of time.
Reading our printed paper more-than-15-pounds PPO business knowledge
1300-page Power Package study materials with photos, over and over, studying around your daily duties, or sitting in your car, or even while resting in bed,
is FAR more effective then trying to study on-line or at a 'seminar'.
Do one final review while parked outside the test center for your PPO test appointment!
Reminder:
200+ pages of datasheets with graphicsenhance our 2021
more-than 15-poundnearly-1400-pages PPO Power Package study material package!
OR, in the meantime: Do you need a temporary QM Qualified Manager?
Do you need a Qualified Manager for your California
Private Patrol Operator PPO licensed business NOW?
This usually occurs from three situations:
1) Your existing QM moved away or passed away with little warning.
2) You need to start operating a security guard business quick,
sooner than the time it will take you to apply for and take the PPO license test.
3) You want to start your new PPO business now, using an existing QM,
and will later take the test yourself to replace the existing QM.
At www.thePIgroup.com (your source for guaranteed-pass study material for the 2019 PPO license test!),
there are many existing QMs ready to assist with such a situation.
Short-term, temporary, or long-term-- male and female,
and of many languages:
English, Spanish, Korean, Arabic, Vietnamese, Chinese, Hausa,
Japanese, Russian, Lithuanian, Persian, Croation, and more.
We have assisted many persons to find a Qualified Manager within 24 hours!
Call 818-883-6969.
We have helped about 1900 applicants to pass the PPO license test, and
can refer you to many already qualified persons to become your 'instant QM'!
TESTIMONIAL: "Very thorough materials, thank you. I completed and passed the PPO license test in 20 minutes." HS
This is NOT some wimpy ten-cent 'PDF file' to download on a computer! This is not a silly 'PowerPoint' or a confusing & boring multiple-choice test.
This is a large more-than-15-pound Power Package of PPO business knowledge,
nearly 1400 pages,
to read and re-read whenever you have spare time. And it has the ultra-important PASS GUARANTEE above!
Both packages have the same test-study and test-preparation materials.
At any of the 20+ CA PPO test locations,you will be surrounded by other test-takers.
You can pass, yet most of the other test-takers will not pass: see our written conditional guarantee above!
Anotherbonus! You will need 'marketing materials' to make your PPO company bigger.
Postcards are an effective tool, as they can be mailed themselves with a stamp, or
put in an envelope. An easy item for prospective clients to pin to their bulletin board.
Included is an example of an affordable-to-print full-color 4X6 postcard design that has
been proven to assist PPOs in getting new clients. It is already designed; you just need to
change it to your phone, license, and company name, and possibly add some minor changes.
And at no charge, we can custom design yours for you, giving you a .pub file of
it that you
can then give or e-mail to many print shops for immediate printing!
TESTIMONIAL: "Thanks so much-- I passed the test! There were no suprises." PO
Our anti-copy 'ghostprinting' of dark embedded-word watermarking helps us fight piracy!
Don't waste time with study help that doesn't include a PASS guarantee! Ask anyone who says they can help you with this test:
"How many people have you helped
pass a license test in the past year?"
I have helped more than 4500 people
to pass their state's licensing tests.
Only I have helped more than
400 to pass in the past year- NOBODY else has helped even 30 in the past year!
Having been actually hired by BSIS as a paid SME (Subject Matter Expert) for
the re-write of another BSIS license test gives me insight NOT available elsewhere.
Those 3 days spent in Sacramento with the CA state test-writers SAYS IT ALL.
The State of California sent me a round-trip airplane ticket.
The State of California gave me a hotel room for 3 days.
And the State of California paid me for my 3 days of time.
So, I know HOW BSIS tests are written and WHY. I have the business knowledge.
(And I have the 'Thank you' letter that followed from BSIS on my wall!)
Need the nearly-1500-PPO business knowledge sample question variants with verified
correct answers,
the PPO business knowledge Quick Quizzes,
the practice Final Exam testing,
the PPO Business Knowledge Quick Tests, the Badge & Patch design kit,
Topic Tests, Quick Quizzes, a PPO business knowlege Master Knowledge Test,
the more than 300 question-supporting datasheets
with graphics/photos, and about 40 other items?
Then call 818 883-6969 and ask for the more-than-15-pounds
nearly-1400-pages PPO Power Package!
Call (818) 883-6969
or e-mail to thePIgroup@aol.com for prompt assistance!
Don't waste even a penny on garbage 'on-line' or 'download manual' PPO study help!
We have delivered many PPO packages to persons who first used such help and then failed.
We have persons who first failed after using this 'alternate' help,
then the persons wisely used our material to pass the next time.
But later that 'alternate help' claimed to have helped them to pass!
Another mention:
"Your material helped me pass in less than a half hour.
Here's an interesting tidbit for you: my friend's wife paid about $100 to receive some PPO study questions by Internet.
I looked at 20 of them-- there were 3 clearly wrong answers." (info as shared, yes they were wrong answers)."
Another such recent complaint:
"I own a security company. I paid a guy $99 for a download of about
100 pages of what he said would be 'study material for the PPO test'.
I studied it, then took the test. I failed.
Almost none of my test was covered in his material. I'm asking him for a refund.
And I have ordered your guaranteed-pass package NOW.
I wish I had known about you earlier."
---This is what happens when test-takers are told that
they "only need to know 100 questions because all the
others are just derivatives of that 100". THAT'S A LIE!
(There are 6 different tests, each mostly different.)
The purchaser above regrets believing in that new PPO's 'sale pitch'
about the selling of 100 download pages, and wishes that instead
had first gone with the proven 25-year help that has assisted
more than 800 to pass this PPO test, many many in the last year! THIS VICTIM'S CONTACT DATA AVAILABLE
IF NEEDED BY BSIS OR OTHER VICTIMS
However, that seller has now removed ALL of the YouTube
video advertisements
for his California license testing 'help',
so perhaps there will be no more victims
(they now show the above 'video removed' logo).
ANOTHER GUY SAID: "I got 'study material' from a guy who bad-mouthed you,
and he said I would pass with his stuff. I failed even though I knew his data.
Then I went to you and got your materials. I then passed very easily." - DS
ANOTHER GUY SAID: "I paid some guy through PayPal for some PPO information.
It wasn't enough. So I got your package and passed!" - NK
ANOTHER GUY SAID: " (Federal agent) Another guy said he had PPO stuff on the Internet.
I checked it out, compared it-- it was nothing." - VG
ANOTHER GUY SAID:
"I failed 3 times. Then I wasted $300 for some in-person training--
it didn't help, I failed a 4th time. I am so glad I next found you!" - ID
ANOTHER GUY SAID: "I passed with flying colors after using your material. I came from a non-traditional background to this license.
Your material was 'night & day different' than what I had first got from (his name given but omitted here);
I could not have even come close to passing using his minimal set of 'questions',
of which one even said 'not sure of correct answer'!."
- (PPO's initials omitted, as we are waiting to see if like others who failed with (name omitted)'s 'help',
he then lists this PPO as 'Passed with his help' even though others failed with his 'help' and then came to us.
UPDATE: Yes, he did list this person as passing with his help EVEN THOUGH HE FAILED WITH IT!
)
SUMMARY:
There is a guy whose material has let his 'students' fail the PPO test,
yet when they passed later after using OUR material next,
he then claimed them as his successes! (OUCH!)
Good news:
He has removed MUCH his extensive advertising from YouTube, so perhaps this will stop happening.
RECENT TESTIMONIAL: "I got some sample questions from another guy-- that included some wrong answers! Then I got your material." - SL
We've heard enough complaints about junk out there.
After hearing enough complaints about people failing after using a
'PPO download'
available somewhere,
we tracked one down and took a look at it--
We examined EVERY PAGE of it. We examined EVERY WORD of it.
It is no wonder why it is no longer promoted for sale.
Summary: we CLEARLY see why the complaints and fail results exist!
1- Misspellings. 2- Many wrong answers or inaccurate or poor information.
3- Long drawn-out explanations of legal terms of no PPO testing value. 4-Uses the exact opposite of standard education training:
every page of the download is solid black with mostly white letters on it
instead of the best-for-eyes black print on white page.
5- It is actually a PowerPoint item, meant to be seen on a projector--
NOT on a test-prep manual!
6- If you try to print it (but it says not to, on every page),
it will use MANY black ink cartridges,
due to the unprofessional black background of every page.
7- No sample tests. 8- No lists of sample questions with answers.
9- Luckily its not on YouTube anymore:
10- Barely covers any true test topics.
Bottom line:
It is a sick joke to claim that his item is adequate PPO study material. We have a printed copy and will reveal all of its many problems
to those ripped off by it or to complaint investigators. We assist people EVERY month who tried to pass with 'other methods' and failed.
If you have wasted money on worthless junk that didn't help you to pass the PPO test,
we can help you towards getting your money back for purchasing a 'defective product'.
TESTIMONIAL: "I got about 100 'questions with answers' from a guy who bad-mouthed you, and he said I would pass with his stuff. I failed even though I knew his data. Then I went to you and got your materials. I then passed very easily." - DS

Many Private Patrol Operator see those 16 crowded pages and get confused.

FREE COMPUTERIZED PPO
BADGE DESIGN SAMPLE!
Here's a fun thing to try, and it's FREE.
1. What do you want to call your PPO company?
2. What type badge do you like?
(An eagle-top shield?A star? An oval?)
(Watch out for the new shape restriction!)
3. What color badge? (Silver or gold?)
4. What center seal would you use on your badge?
(Watch out for the new center-seal restrictions!)
5. What badge number would you use on your own badge?
(Secret: BSIS will NOT approve either of the designs above)
Call us with these answers, and we will quickly do a
badge design for you and will send it to your cell phone.
You can use this design to submit to BSIS for your approval.
The state recently updated the test: So why do some people try to sell you material from last year?!?!
There is so much new for 2021 that our new PPO 101
Power Package
is more than a pound heavier than last year.
Computer badge-design instructions are included!
After several requests asking for a version,
we formed a plan-- but we don't recommend it as the best choice.
If we provided you only the more than 1400 pages of paper material,
with no binder, no dividers, not even any staples(!),
perhaps we could shave off 10% for this new bare-bones 'economy' version.
Don't choose this option.
While it would have every page that the other version does,
we don't think it's a great idea. We think, actually we KNOW,
that our proper assembly into a binder with dividers and with
related
items stapled together makes it a better study tool.
There would be no type of guarantee offered with it
(but nobody has ever failed who knew our material anyways).
So, because we have been asked, this is the idea.
Our anti-copy 'ghostprinting' of dark embedded-word watermarking and stamps on most pages helps us fight piracy!
NEW 2021 MORE-THAN-15-POUNDS 1400-PAGE
PPO POWER PACKAGE ORDERING CHOICES INFORMATION
1.(THIS IS THE BEST CHOICE,
IF YOU CAN TAKE THE TIME!) Make an appointment and come pick up
a PPO package in the Los Angeles area (ask about the special free extras if
you have the time to come in to see us!
Besides you picking up the 15-pound 'PPO 101 / 'PPO Bible',
we can help with your application, or with getting your badge and
patch designs done, or getting a website started, and much more), Please don't make a pick-up appointment unless
you 100% can be there on-time and as scheduled
or
2. Mail a simple money order, and your package goes
out same-day the money order is received and processed,
(be sure to include a note that says
PPO and your name and shipping address
and the name of the person taking the test;
there is NO connection to this order to
any
text or email you may have sent)
or
3. Mail a check, but
we put long holds on
orders paid by check.<<< don't miss this, we hold check-paid orders for at least 2 weeks
due to getting bad checks back 13 days later,
(be sure to include a note that says
PPO and your name and shipping address
and the name of the person taking the test;
there is NO connection to this order to
any
text or email you may have sent)
4. From 1990 through 2020, we took credit cards,
electronic payments, PayPal, Western Union, etc. NO MORE. We're tired of the 'bad numbers', the delays,
the costs,
the 'bank mistakes', the excuses, 'its my wife's fault', and so on.
We make too little on these nearly-1400-page
15-pound PPO packages for such BS.
So
unless we are to raise our prices now, if you can't come in to
pick up
a package then there's only one way to send a shipment to
you
if you need it faster then by sending payment by regular mail:
you simply overnight us a money order.
It doesn't have to be a costly and
time-consuming money order issued by a bank--
a grocery store or 7-11 money order is fine.
