Global Protection Group delivers specialist firearms training for law-enforcement agencies, government security services, armed forces and professional security organisations whose personnel use firearms as part of their duties.
Our programmes prepare participants to handle and use firearms safely, effectively and consistently, in accordance with their operational responsibilities, applicable procedures and anticipated operational environment.
Training is intended primarily for law-enforcement officers, government security personnel and military units.
Within an appropriately defined scope, programmes may also be delivered to authorised security personnel, close protection teams and specialist security organisations operating domestically or internationally.
