Vector Security Networks' Loss Prevention Foundation (LPF) Scholarship Program

What is an LPF Scholarship?

Each year, Vector Security Networks® grants a number of LPF Loss Prevention Qualified (LPQ ) and Loss Prevention Certified (LPC) scholarships to the LP/AP Community. Worthy candidates for the scholarships have shown a dedication to a long-term career in North American retail loss prevention and a willingness to commit themselves to continuing their education.

The goal of the LPF Scholarship Program is to provide LPQ & LPC scholarships to well-deserving loss prevention professionals and new entrants to the retail LP industry. A total of 327 scholarships valued at more than $323,500 have been awarded since the program began in 2009.

The coursework for each of the programs LPQualified and LPCertified is explained in greater detail at: Yourlpf.org.

The scholarships cover the course fee for LPQ or LPC certifications. Upon completion of the course, you will need to pass a proctored exam to become certified. (The cost of the exams are: LPQ Exam $250 / LPC Exam $300.) Check with your employer for reimbursement options.
