Believe in the 2 weeks I learnt and progressed a great deal and owe this to the excellent instruction and speed which I felt was just right. Best course I have ever been on and the most enjoyableMike S - former UK Police Firearms Officer, interview, deployed, Aegis Iraq. (June 07 PSD Operator + Live Firearms Course)

Many thanks again for one of the most intense, gruelling, challenging courses I have attended. Not only have you taught valuable job skills, you have changed my whole way of thinking!! In 2 weeks, I don't think the team have experienced so many highs and lows, mentally and physically. Doesn't matter what anyone's background, it is truly THE course to attend.Steve - former British Army, interviewed & deployed with CRG, SIA CPO Licensed (Sept 06 PSD Operator Course)

AB, please pass on to A** and K*** that I truly appreciate the dedication and professionalism of your training methods in getting me prepared for this contract.Mike J, interviewed and deployed, Aegis, Iraq (Sept 07 PSD Operator + Live Firearms Course)

I've thoroughly enjoyed myself and I now have a firm foundation on which to continue building my knowledge base.  I believe that I’m better prepared and confident that I have the necessary skills to make the transition from my current contract, and pursue a career in the Close protection/PSD community.  Thank you AB, K***, A*** and J****.
