Canine Security Validation

Program Overview

The Canine Security Validation program is designed for BC security guards who use canines. The program is administered by the JIBC Private Security Industry Canine Program and is based on the minimum performance standards developed by JIBC and the Ministry of Justice, Security Programs and Police Technology Division.

Validation Tests

Validation of canine teams is based on the minimum performance standards. The validation tests are conducted by a JIBC qualified evaluator in accordance with the Security Dog Validation Standards (PDF) handout. Validations must be renewed each year.

The validation tests, or required tasks, are designed to determine the proficiency and reliability of the canine team in two distinct profiles:

• Protection (including Human Scent detection)
• Signature Odour Scent Work (Narcotic or Explosives)

Successful Completion

Students will receive a Canine Security Validation Certificate for one of the two profiles and a copy of their validation test results.
