"NVSA has consistently trained our employees to be professional, well-prepared security officers." - Security Company Director

At NVSA, we have been training students in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area since 1976 with over 10,000 graduates on our rolls. Our Director, Howard L. Miller, Jr. has over 30 years experience in the private security industry both in practice and as an instructor. We offer entry level, In-service, and requalification courses for security officers (armed and unarmed), Private Investigators, Personal Protection Specialists, and Special Conservator of the Peace. Our courses, instructors and class plans are approved by the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS). Upon satisfactory completion of the course and an approved application by DCJS, you will be qualified to work with a licensed agency in Virginia. The courses have also been helpful to those who wish to expand their knowledge of the criminal justice system and homeland defense. In addition, we have partnered with computer forensics experts SunBlock Systems to host BitFlare Certified Operator courses onsite. BitFlare is a freely available computer forensics tool designed for non-experts. With BitFlare, a licensed Private Investigator can offer computer forensic services with relatively little training and no up-front software investment.
