The CLEET license process can be complicated, with license requirements, classroom hours, and state testing. We want to help! The information below will cover the different types of licensing in Oklahoma and common questions.


Note—This information is believed to be accurate at the time of posting. We will endeavor to update it as soon as possible. However, all final advice and guidelines should be sourced directly from CLEET.



Officers who are new to the security field will need to acquire a license. There are 3 options available:

Conditional License

Officers can apply for a temporary 6-month license called a Conditional. This is an Unarmed license that is conditional on the officer completing the necessary classes and testing within the 6 month time period. Individuals can work in an Unarmed capacity for up to 45 days while their application is processing.

Unarmed License

Armed License
