ACTIVE THREAT RESPONSE FOR THE EXECUTIVE PROTECTION AGENT (ATR-201)

ACTIVE THREAT RESPONSE FOR THE EXECUTIVE PROTECTION AGENT

The Active Threat Response for the Executive Protection Agent 3-day training program was developed to deliver the critical skills required for executive protection agents to competently and confidently conduct full-spectrum tactical response operations during an active threat crisis with the primary mission remaining - Keeping our clients Safe, Happy, and Productive.

The training program was designed and developed utilizing the best practices, tactics, techniques, and procedures of our internal subject matter experts (SMEs), federal, state, and municipal-level public safety organizations, military special operations, and private sector security organizations

PURPOSE

The program culminates with a capstone full-mission-profile Situational Training Exercise (STX) in which students will be evaluated on the entire spectrum of skills encompassed by the curriculum.

Participants receive dynamic instruction from real-world, operationally experienced instructors with decades of combined operational and training experience in law enforcement patrol and tactical operations, military special operations, firearms, tactics, and breaching skills, improvised explosive device response, tactical medicine, executive protection, and related skills in both domestic and international environments.
