We specifically designed this course for those who work for high-net worth individuals, executives or celebrities. The purpose of this course is to provide handlers and support personnel with fundamental training in response to emergencies or critical incidents that may occur in public spaces, at special events, while in transit, or at a client's home or workplace. Participants will be provide instruction in a myriad of disciplines ranging from basic first aid and empty-hand self defense tactics to crisis preparation and firearms training. The intent of this course is not to train students to function as security personnel, but rather be able to provide emergency aid or critical support to their principal in the absence of a protective detail, or should the security detail be compromised.

 

Over the course of three days, students will be trained in basics tactics and procedures to prepare for, and survive, Critical Incidents, Active Shooter, Mass Casualty Attacks, and various Natural Disasters. ASSET™ training includes Basic First Aid, CPR and AED certification; Aikijujutsu based self defense techniques; firearm instruction (both classroom and range); reality-based tactical scenarios; and abundant practice in communication procedures and methods. The live-fire training module focuses heavily on safe operating procedures, the use of cover and concealment, and "Shoot-No Shoot" decision making. This course contains "force-on-force" training only as it relates to empty hand defense, edged weapons, and weapon retention techniques.
