Is a security professional in the province of Alberta eligible to begin work before receiving their license?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only with special permission

  4. Under supervision

The correct answer is: False

In the province of Alberta, it is illegal for a security professional to begin work without first obtaining their license. This license ensures that the individual has received proper training and certification in the field of security. Option A is incorrect because it states that the professional is eligible to work before receiving their license, which is not true. Option C is incorrect because there is no mention of "special permission" in the regulations for security professionals in Alberta. Option D is incorrect because being under supervision does not exempt a security professional from needing a valid license. Therefore, the only correct choice is B, as it accurately states that a security professional in Alberta must have their license before beginning work.
