PURPOSE and GOALS
This course provides theory, basic practice, and extensive simulation
practice in all aspects of executive protection. (See
Testing and Certification below.)
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates will be
certified as Executive Protection Specialists.
Graduates will be able to provide a secure environment for a
protectee, by identifying, planning, preventing and controlling
potential safety problems and risks while the protectee is positioned on
foot, in a vehicle, within a structure of any type, in all geographical
locations, under normal and emergency conditions.
Graduates will also be able to execute procedures to mitigate the
effects of unusual incidents. These objectives will be
accomplished according to attributes of professionalism in such a manner
as to maintain and enhance the legality, credibility, and legitimacy of
the agency providing security; enhance the routine and emergency
protective efficiency; and maintain sustained proper working relations
with the protectee, protectee's family, and staff.
