College Graduate looking to get a certificatuion under his b

Postby strangedream » 2 Apr 2007 23:44

Im going to by graduating with my Bachelors Degree in Psychology with a minor in Business Management and I thought I would get a lock -picking/smithing certification under my belt just for fun during the summer until I take me GED and go to graduate school.

Naturally Im looking for the best there is for this field . What do you recommend? I could probably do some kind of CIA training with my degree or do you need a masters for that?

Thanks

You are a day late for April Fools.

College graduates take the GRE, not the GED.

The FB course is pretty reputable in the industry from what I know. My diploma from them looks pretty slick hanging on the wall in a frame. :D They also have a Master Keying course and a Professional Lockpicking course you can take too. I haven't taken them yet because I'm still finishing up my advanced FB course but the lockpicking course looks tempting.

FB doesn't seem all that difficult though. Perhaos certification in safes in vaults, alarms would be more at my level do they have schools for that?

The safe and vault section in the advanced lessons are much more in depth than the basic locksmith course. I think you'll like that one. Now I'm waiting for the security alarm section.
