Description
Close protection isn’t what films make it look like. It’s long hours, sharp judgment, and reading a room before anyone else does. UK officers earn between £35,000 and £70,000 a year. However, our close protection course gives you the grounding to work toward your SIA licence. The course is fully online and ends with a CPD-accredited certificate.
What You Will Learn in the Close Protection Course
Each module covers a real part of the job, such as:
- Reading threats and assessing risk fast
- Planning safe routes and venue checks
- Running search procedures the right way
- Working as part of a protection team
- Handling conflict without using force
- Driving and escorting principals safely
- Following UK law on the use of force
- Preparing for SIA licensing
The Reality Behind Close Protection Work
Most of the job is quiet. It’s waiting, watching and thinking three steps ahead. Our course shows you how real operators think and move. You’ll learn at your own schedule, with lessons drawn from the industry. Among close protection courses, this one builds your foundation. So you’re ready for a level 3 close protection course or a close protection course in London.
