How does one find a decent Physical Security Management job in the Dallas/Ft Worth area

How does one find a decent Physical Security Management job in the Dallas/Ft Worth area?
I retired from the Air Force in 2002. In the Air Force I performed minor aircraft maintenance. I earned a BS degree in Aeronautics in 1996 and a MA degree in Management in 2000. In 2004 I landed a job as a Security Supervisor for the Wackenhut Corp at San Jose, CA. I have been working for them ever since, but I feel I'm under employed. At the end of this year I will be moving to the Dallas area. Wackenhut will probably offer me a job, but more than likely it will be a supervisor's position or less. Can anyone please offer any suggestions how I can break into a security management position in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Thanks!

Apply at another company and let them know you are ready to take on more responsibility. It's worked well for most of the security managers at the company I work for (Securitas). Many have come from Allied, Atlas, etc. All received promotions --the site supervisor became an account manager; the account manager became a Global account manager, etc. As a side note, it really does sound like you have plenty of experience, and should have been moved up from supervisor.

What to do with a Bachelors in Political Science

What to do with a Bachelors in Political Science?
Ok, law school is out of the question. There is less demand than 20 years ago. I was thinking Journalism or getting an MA in Campaign Management I may want to stay an extra year or 2 and get my BS in Adolescent Education with a Certification in Social Studies. What is a good steady career? I did want to go to law school, but then I saw a lower demand article on Yahoo today.

If law school is out of the question you will have to either become a writer of some kind or work for government if you want to use that degree. If you don't want to use the degree you can work in customer service, sales etc.

If you want to go to law school, then go. Don't have regrets about it some day. If you graduate in the top of your class you will be the first choice for many good jobs. Plus, lawyers can always practice on their own.

Lower demand article hahaha..... We all know its GPA/LSAT related. Poor guy.

Whether or not there is lower demand, trust me, you can get a good job if you get your J.D. .. even if you don't want to actually be a practicing lawyer.. but if you don't wanna do that, any of the other options you mentioned would be decent too... just gotta figure out what you wanna do... getting a BS in teaching is the most stable type of job you can train for... the pay isn't so great though.. campaign management.. if you're good at it, it's fairly stable, but would be an intensely competitive field.. I dunno, you have lots of options with a P.S. bachelor's.. it's a liberal arts degree, but yeah, without anything else you usually have to work in politics or just find a job that requires a bachelor's in general

Stop right there! Go to law school! An attorney friend of mine explained it this way: Even if you become a drunk and are sleeping on a park bench, someone will come and get you, clean you up, feed you a hot meal and take you to Men's Warehouse for a suit without vomit stains on it in exchange for services. Or you could always hold up a cardboard sign at an intersection that reads, Will Give Legal Advice For Food, and be sure to include your Bar Number on the sign. You can do more good and make as much money farting around in your house shoes as a lawyer than any of the other things you mentioned.

You need to be certified to teach at the secondary level. Call the Personnel Office of your local school district and ask for help in getting certification information. Just to be sure, check your state department website for requirements for certification. You sound well qualified in terms of content, but they make you take a course in English education. That's a guess. Every state is different.

Certification varies greatly from state to state. You can check with your local department of education or the state department to find the exact qualifications for cerfification. In my state - you would do a 5th year teaching cerfificate program, which would essentially give you a masters in education. Most colleges that have an education program can tell you exactly what you need to do to be certified. With the content knowledge that you have - you shouldn't have a problem getting a job. It's just a matter of getting that paper that says you can teach. Good luck!!
