Loss Prevention Employment - Do You Have the Right Education?

With the current shape of the US economy and thousands of people losing their jobs every day, there have been notable increases in retail theft and shoplifting which results in a greater need for loss prevention employment. Every year, billions of dollars are being lost to shoplifters and thieves. The amount of money being lost is becoming even greater as household incomes are cut due to job losses and people struggle to make their ends meet.

An excellent preparation for a career in Loss Prevention Employment begins with an education in Criminal Justice or Fire Science. I would strongly encourage all potential applicants to pursue one of the academic programs in the Criminal Justice or Fire Science programs.

Additional education such as:

- Bachelor's degree desired or equivalent work experience

- Minimum 8 progressive years of retail loss prevention employment with 3 years in loss prevention employment or in a multiple store investigative position

- Documented investigative experience in a retail environment

- Completion of Wicklander Zulawski course or equivalent course - Above average word processing, database and spreadsheet computer skills

- Must be able to conduct business with the public and at all levels of personnel
