Executive Protection and Close Protection Training
Global Protection Group prepares close protection personnel and Executive Protection teams to plan and deliver protective operations in corporate, institutional and high-risk environments.
Our programmes are intended for licensed security providers, Executive Protection and Close Protection teams, government protective services, armed forces and military police units responsible for protecting senior executives, private clients, official delegations and personnel operating internationally.
Training may also be delivered to appropriately authorised international security companies undertaking protective assignments for government clients, critical infrastructure operators or organisations active in unstable and high-risk environments.
Each programme is adapted to participant experience, operational responsibilities, the contracting organisation’s procedures, available equipment and anticipated operating environment.
Scope of Training
Depending on participant experience and the objectives of the contracting organisation, training may include:
- threat, vulnerability and risk assessment;
- protective planning and allocation of team responsibilities;
- advance work and reconnaissance of venues, routes and locations;
- protective arrangements during travel, meetings and events;
- foot formations and close protection procedures;
- embus and debus procedures and protective vehicle movements;
- response to incidents, attacks and rapidly changing situations;
- emergency extraction, evacuation and relocation of the protected person;

Training combines theoretical preparation, individual and team exercises, and scenarios reflecting participants’ operational duties.
