EXECUTIVE PROTECTION SEMINAR

SEMINAR DESCRIPTION:

This seminar is tailored to corporate security management and security staff who are be tasked with close protection of corporate executives at the office, in transit, or at the residence. The threat of terrorism as well as the increase in criminal activity, both domestically and abroad, has placed huge demands on security staff. The corporate security staff is faced with the challenging task of ensuring that their executive protection program, if one exists, is current and prepared to handle this demanding job.

This seminar is much more than a simple bodyguard course; seminar topics include organization of a protective detail, explosive devices, risk analysis, protective advance, and route advance. For the executive who must travel, other topics include: vehicle security, transitory protection, medical profile, as well as the executive profile. This two-day seminar is literally crammed with expert advice and organizational ideas to save time and money. The executive protocol portion of the seminar is devoted to all aspects of conducting close protection as it relates to the principle's family as well as the executive boardroom.

Whether from a terrorist, criminal, or mentally deranged individual, kidnapping and assassination are real threats for the corporate executive traveling abroad or simply across the country. A protective detail cannot be thrown together; it must be comprised of well-trained individuals. This seminar will lay the foundation for corporate security to form and maintain a close protection team, as well as how to implement policy and training.

BOMB SEARCH AND INCIDENT PLANNING

SEMINAR DESCRIPTION:

This is a one-day seminar designed for the corporate security staff. Participants in the seminar will be instructed in the detection (not disposal) of an explosive device. Stressed throughout the course is command and control of search teams during an explosive situation. The management team will also be prepared in how to properly evaluate threats and apply effective counter measures, with as little disruption to business as possible.

The bomb search portion of the seminar deals with the actual physical search for explosive devices. Topics include detection equipment, building searches, vehicle searches, and mail devices, as well as countermeasures and prevention strategies. The incident planning portion deals with how to properly plan for explosive events and mitigate their threat to your business. This includes topics such as crisis management and team selection, emergency services, risk analysis, and media relations, as well as corporate liability, and prevention.

The devastating effects of a bomb can be costly, not only in terms of human lives, but in corporate liability and loss of business. It is imperative that managers do everything they can to prepare for and prevent the threat. The Bomb Search and Incident Planning seminar can be taught as individual courses or combined, at the client’s discretion.

LETTER AND PARCEL BOMBS

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This is a mini-seminar designed for at-risk corporate entities. Many companies receive bulk mail from activists or the disgruntled former employee, or worse from a deranged individual who has taken the next step, and actually sends a device through the mail. If you feel your organization is at risk for this type of threat, this seminar is for you. This seminar is applicable to corporate mail handlers and security.

Seminar topics include advice on prevention and effective countermeasures, blast effects, case studies, detection, as well as providing current and future trends. This two-hour PowerPoint presentation provides the security manager with techniques that will assist in mitigating, as well as developing protocols and policy.

HOSTAGE SURVIVAL

SEMINAR DESCRIPTION:

This is an eight-hour seminar designed to provide the executive with survival skills necessary to travel safely. In addition to the personal concerns, executives and dignitaries have the responsibility for their families and employees. This seminar will equip the executive with valuable knowledge on how to survive in today’s terrorist oriented world.

Among the topics discussed are the executive and corporate vulnerability, case studies, transitory protection, security and the family, kidnap and ransom insurance, preventive measures, as well as what to do if you are taken hostage. This seminar also provides a realistic assessment of hostage rescue and what you can do to improve your odds for a successful outcome. This is absolutely essential information for those at risk or those who are planning a trip overseas in to countries known for their terrorist activity.

This seminar is applicable to corporate staff, or can be tailored to accommodate the entire family. Prevention strategies are discussed in detail, as well as how to become proactive in your own personal security. A few hours in proactive training now can prevent a brush with terrorism later.
