The exam
What the Manitoba security guard exam involves
To work as a security guard in Manitoba you must complete the mandatory 40-hour Manitoba Security Guard Training Program, delivered by an approved training provider, and pass the final provincial licensing exam set by the Registrar. The questions in this app are built from the program's official Participant's Manual published by Manitoba Justice.
What is the pass mark for the Manitoba security guard exam?
You must score 75% or higher to pass. This is set in Manitoba law: the Private Investigators and Security Guards Regulation (164/2010) requires a grade of 75% or higher on the examination established by the Registrar.
- Pass mark: 75% or higher (official, Manitoba Regulation 164/2010)
- Format: multiple-choice
- Delivery: hosted online by E-proctor
How many questions are on the Manitoba security guard exam, and how long is it?
Manitoba Justice and the Registrar do not publish the number of questions on the final exam or a time limit. The officially confirmed facts are that the exam is online, e-proctored, and requires 75% to pass. Our practice mock uses a timed 60-question set so you can rehearse, but treat that as practice, not the official exam length.
- Official question count: not published by Manitoba
- Official time limit: not published by Manitoba
- Exam fee: $30, paid to E-proctor when you schedule
How many times can I take the Manitoba security guard exam?
You have three opportunities to pass the final exam. If you do not pass within those three attempts, you must repeat the full 40-hour training course before you can test again. There is a zero-tolerance policy for any breach of the exam conditions, which protects the integrity of the exam.
- Attempts: 3, then repeat the full 40-hour course
- Integrity: zero-tolerance policy for breaching exam conditions

FAQ
Common questions
What is the pass mark for the Manitoba security guard exam?
75% or higher. This is set in Manitoba law: Regulation 164/2010 requires a grade of 75% or higher on the Registrar's examination. Our mock exam uses the same 75% threshold.
How many questions are on the exam and how long is it?
Manitoba does not publish the official number of questions or a time limit. What is confirmed is that the exam is online, e-proctored, and needs 75% to pass. Our app's practice mock uses a timed 60-question set for rehearsal.
How much does the exam cost and how many tries do I get?
There is a $30 fee paid to E-proctor when you schedule the exam. You get three opportunities to pass; if you fail all three you must repeat the full 40-hour training course before testing again.
Is the exam online?
Yes. The security guard licensing exam is hosted online by E-proctor. There is a zero-tolerance policy for any breach of the exam conditions.
Is this the official Manitoba exam app?
No. This is an independent study aid. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Government of Manitoba, Manitoba Justice, or the Registrar. It is built from the publicly available MSGTP Participant's Manual under the OpenMB Information and Data Use Licence.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. After a one-time purchase the entire question bank and all flashcards work fully offline, with no account, no subscription and no internet needed.
Who writes these questions, and how do you check the answers are right?
Every question is written from the official public materials for this exam and cites the source passage it comes from. Before it ships, a second, independent AI model from a different family confirms that the cited passage supports the answer, and a human reviews anything the two models disagree on. You can read the full process at rivermaplearning.com/how-we-build-questions, and the free sample questions above let you judge the quality before you buy.
Is this an official app, or affiliated with the Government of Manitoba, Manitoba Justice or the Registrar?
No. It is an independent study tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by the Government of Manitoba, Manitoba Justice or the Registrar. It is built from publicly available official materials (the official Manitoba Security Guard Training Program Participant's Manual); the questions are original, and we never copy the real exam's own questions.
If I pass the practice mock, will I pass the real exam?
No study tool can promise that. Our practice mock mirrors the official format and pass mark where the authority publishes one, and clearly labels any practice length or pass mark that is our own rehearsal format rather than an official figure. Use the app alongside the official study materials, not instead of them.
