Executive Force Protection Level 2 (3-days) |
| Objective: |
 Designed for executives or corporate personnel considering travel to high risk areas with or without Personal Security Details (PSD). Our program is designed so the Covenant instructor will receive the individuals travel itinerary and other information prior to travel in order to develop a focused, tailored travel brief. The traveler will be fully briefed on the area they intend to visit and receive scenario based, hands on training to recognize and respond to the most common threats and hazards they will encounter during their travel. This course includes all the instruction provided in our level 1 course and takes it to the next level using role players, weapons training, live surveillance exercises in urban environments and an actual hostage scenario where the student will be trained to survive and escape the worst case scenario.
The briefings will be researched and prepared by personnel who are US Military Force Protection Unit Advisor Level 2 trainers supported by trained military intelligence analysts and personnel with recent first hand experience in the target country. Instructors are trained and experienced Special Operations operators with combat experience in high risk areas who are Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE) qualified. Scenario role players are qualified Special Operations intelligence and operator qualified personnel with first hand experience in high threat areas facing the same situations you will see in training.
Our trainers travel routinely to high risk areas throughout the world and can provide you first hand accounts of encounters with criminals, terrorists, foreign intelligence agents, catastrophic weather events and dangerous animals and how they were able to survive the encounters and return home alive. This is the best first hand experience available to prepare you for your trip into hazardous locations.
Due to the inherent risks associated with this type of training, it is only conducted at our training facility in Texas where all risk factors have been thoroughly evaluated and control measures put in place. This is some of the most highly effective, intense training offered to the civilian community. Personnel attending this training must provide a current physical from a licensed physician. |
| Subject Areas Covered: |
This course is broken into three days of training.
Day 1. Five one hour blocks of class room instruction, followed by a surveillance detection session in an urban environment.
Session 1 Travel planning. This includes a briefing on the language, demographics, culture, customs and history of the locations visited to include gestures, looks, colors, words and phrases which might offend people in the area you will visit, as well as the correct things to do to ensure you receive a friendly reception. One of the most important things you can do to prepare for your visit is to learn something about the people you will visit. This is not simply a “National Geographic” brief you can pull from the web. This is derived from first hand experience by personnel who know the region and have interacted with the locals.
Session 2 criminal and terrorist threats in the area. This is a focused briefing on the backgrounds, history, tactics, techniques and capabilities of the threat you may encounter during your visit. This includes films and news reports of actual attacks and detailed briefings on how the attack occurred and what could have been done to survive or avoid the attack.
Session 3 environmental hazards. Every region has different hazards you should be aware of and be able to recognize. This block will cover dangerous insects, animals, reptiles, plants, diseases, weather and other natural hazards.
Session 4 emergency first aid.
Session 5 emergency procedures, survival mind-set. This one hour block of instruction covers what to do if the worst case situation happens. The instruction with cover what you can do to avoid capture if an attack occurs, how to survive the first few moments of capture if you are not successful in evading, and how to come back alive from a hostage situation.
Session 6 signature reduction and surveillance detection. This class will provide you with instruction in how foot and vehicle surveillance is conducted, how to recognize this type of surveillance and what to do when you spot it. This training is reinforced with role players who will conduct surveillance on the students at social event attended by students in the surrounding communities.
Day 2. Range Sessions.
Session 1, brief back by the surveillance team on the previous nights exercise.
Session 2, recognizing Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). Students will be shown common IED techniques, their construction and methods of detonation. The course is intended to show the student how the devices work, how to recognize them in the field, and what they can do to you and your vehicle. This is a range course with a demonstration of construction, recognition factors for concealed devices in place on your route of travel, and a live fire demonstration of the effects.
Session 3, weapons familiarization. Students will learn to recognize and operate common small arms found in the areas they will travel to including the Makarov pistol, AK47, and AK74, M4 carbine, Glock pistol, and 12 gage shotgun. This includes a familiarization live fire with each weapon.
Session 4, urban movement and land navigation techniques. The student will learn movement techniques as an evader working through hostile areas. Urban camouflage, rally points, danger areas, cover and concealment, and land navigation techniques will be discussed.
Day 3. Practical exercise.
Students will practice the skills learned in a scenario based practical exercise and develop new skills under the supervision of Special Operations qualified instructors. Exercise culminates with a graduation ceremony. Students are not physically abused or struck in this professional level training but they will be exposed to simulated stressful situations encountered by personnel in hostage situations. |
