Participants will also learn anti-surveillance and counter-surveillance techniques, as well as effective methods for obtaining, recording, and collating intelligence.

Close Protection Courses at 3rg

Level 3 Certificate for Close Protection Operatives in the Private Security Industry

(NEW SIA APPROVED SPECIFICATION APR 2022)

FOUR REASONS TO CHOOSE 3RG'S CLOSE PROTECTION COURSES:
3rg Instructors & Staff - We have the essential knowledge to deliver!
Up-to-date Close Protection Training program, meeting SIA approval.
High pass rate + Post-course support.
Recognition of prior learning - We understand some students may already have the required experience.
At our purpose-built training facility based on the south coast in Poole, the 3rg team delivers a course at the very foretront of Close Protection Training, providing attendees with a unique opportunity to develop core competencies and gain invaluable first-hand experience of operating in this area of the private security sector.

The 3rg training programme has been developed to address the latest SIA learning outcomes for Close Protection licensing.

As well as the core competencies, 3rg provides relevant training for both the HECPO* (Hostile Environments Close Protection Operative) and Executive Protection roles.

What is a HECPO? Typically, a student with formal fi****ms training, e.g., former military personnel who has passed an approved CP course and is SIA licensed.

What if I don't have formal fi****ms training? A HET (Hostile Environment Training) certificate will be awarded to those who have attended the hostile environment training module.
*Note - those without formal fi****ms training will not partake in weapon handling assessments.
*Note - HECPO and HET is 3rg certification and not a qualification funded by ELCAS.

At 3rg, we believe that Surveillance Training is one of the most important modules within the training. This is why we insist on only surveillance qualified instructors to lead this valuable subject, delivering our Enhanced Surveillance Module.

Note: Candidates who do not already have a formal medical qualification (Level 3 RQF 3 Day First Aid at Work or Level 3 RQF
First Response in Emergency Care / First Person on Scene) will be required to take the FREC 3 course, which can be added to the Close Protection course at an additional charge.
