moved here by Pheniox in an attempt to clean up the forums
dug up a link, but instead decided to copy and paste the list in here so the site doesn't get too link-ridden. The only address I can truly vouch for is the one I attended at Red Deer College.
Concerning the others, your best bet would be to either do a web search, write, phone, or fax the address given. If you do and find the place no longer exists or does not offer locksmithing or security courses, pm me and I'll remove it from the list. That said, here ya go:
