Security & Enforcement Defensive Driving

The GTA's Only Specialized Program

Your Driving Record Is Your Career Application — Make It Count

Police services, CBSA, municipal enforcement agencies, and private security firms do not simply check your driving abstract — they evaluate your risk profile. One at-fault collision or careless driving charge can disqualify you from the public safety career you have trained for.

  • CADD's Security & Enforcement Defensive Driving Program is the only specialized course in the Greater Toronto Area designed specifically for law enforcement and public safety professionals. Developed with input from active-duty officers and security directors, this 10-hour program transforms your driving from "licensed" to "liability-proof.
