Psychological Examination Form

 
If you're applying for a position in the Security field, you know that Pennsylvania's Act 235 requires that you pass a psychological examination from a certified professional. The law mandates that anyone who carries a lethal weapon undergo this testing. The act defines "lethal weapon" as any weapon calculated to produce death or serious bodily harm. The most common examples are pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns, even nightsticks and billy clubs.

Examples of Security professionals who are required to arrange for this psychological testing include, but are not limited to, security guards, armored truck guards, night watchmen, private investigators and alarm response guards.


Dr. Bruce Eimer, in addition to being a Pennsylvania Licensed Psychologist, is also an NRA Certified Firearms Instructor who trains and qualifies people to carry concealed weapons. He is co-author of the Essential Guide to Handguns, as well as author of a monthly column in Concealed Carry Magazine. Dr. Eimer understands lethal weapons and the people who carry them.


Who you select to conduct your psychological testing can impact your career. So it only makes sense to choose an expert in the field of clinical psychology who also understands the requirements for owning and carrying a firearm.
