The provider of the app is a non-profit GmbH and not a government institution. All content is based on publicly available information and the requirements of the Security Ordinance (BewachV) in its current version. You can view the current version of the regulation on the following website of the Federal Ministry of Justice: https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bewachv_2019/BJNR069200019.html. Despite the greatest care in preparing the questions, no guarantee can be given that the content is correct, complete and up-to-date or that it corresponds to the legal requirements.

Test and train your knowledge with over 640 questions for 40 hours of training in the security industry. This helps you prepare for all security tasks for which no expertise test is required in accordance with Section 34a GewO.

The test questions were developed to support understanding and knowledge in accordance with the Security Ordinance (BewachV) and Section 34a GewO. Please note that these questions are intended as a study aid and are not the official exam questions.

According to the security regulations, the questions are divided into the following subject areas:
• Law of public safety and order
• Commercial law
• Data protection
• Civil Code
• Criminal law and criminal procedure law
• Handling weapons
• Accident prevention regulations
• Dealing with people
• Basic principles of safety technology

Please note that the questions in this app serve as learning support for instruction in the security industry and are not exam questions for the expertise test according to GewO § 34a. This makes them different from the official exam tasks, which often have a higher level of difficulty. For comprehensive preparation for the knowledge test, we recommend additional courses and specialized learning materials.

When I start the app, I am automatically in training mode, but I can switch to test mode at any time with just a few clicks. In training mode, like with flashcards, I only see the correct answer.  In test mode, I decide on an answer and receive immediate feedback. Alternatively, I can display the correct answer without attempting a solution.

I can decide how I design my test with each test run:
• I choose questions from just one, several or all subject areas. The orange tick next to the subject areas shows me what has been “actively” selected.
• I test my knowledge in either power or sequence mode.

Power mode is preset when you start the app. However, I can switch to order mode at any time via Settings.

Power mode: Depending on my test success, the questions are repeated more or less frequently. Questions answered incorrectly appear more often than those answered correctly. The questions are repeated until all have been answered correctly.

I can influence the probability of resubmission via settings:
1. about the “degree of probability” the intervals at which the questions will be presented again
2. via the “activation buffer” the number of questions per test run.

Sequence mode: Here I can display the test questions either in a given or random order. I can also set this via settings.

What other advantages does the app offer?
• Display of the current knowledge and processing status either per test run or since the first start of the app.
• Updating the question pool via “synchronization”
• Parallel use of the app on all mobile devices I use

We strive to update the question pool regularly to ensure the relevance and accuracy of the content. Please check the app regularly for updates to ensure you have access to the latest information.
