PA Act 235 New Certification

Lethal Weapons certification, officially known as PA Act 235, is mandatory for all privately employed persons who utilize any type of a lethal weapon in the performance of their work.

Lethal Weapons Training Academy is a state certified PA Act 235 certification center.
