When considering close protection training, choose a school that has been vetted by the D.O.E. and the VA and has current experience in protective security.
Close Protection Training May 6 – June 2
VIP Protection, Bodyguarding, Close Protection, Personal Protection, and of course Executive Protection, are all virtually interchangeable. And Close Protection is a growing industry.
Executive Protection is used to protect people from physical threats such as assassination, assault, harassment, kidnapping, and stalking. These protective security specialists may also protect other family members as well as property.
Highly-trained security personnel are generally employed by public figures such as politicians, corporate executives, business owners, movie stars, singers and bands, athletes, public speakers and others who have “high profile lifestyles”.

Despite the growing concerns recently after the US May 2016 jobs report over a potential economic slowdown, the outlook for the Security Services industry continues to show substantial growth. As security concerns continue to escalate, government entities and private organizations are expected to increase spending dramatically to improve all aspects of their security programs.
The attainment of a Class “D” statewide license issued by Florida’s Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is the first step in becoming a security officer. Once you have completed the state-mandated 40-hours of classroom training and taken and passed the exam the State of Florida will issue you a temporary license. The temporary license will allow you to begin working immediately while waiting for your hard copy from the State. The Class “D” license is for unarmed positions. For an armed position, you must complete the requisite requirements to obtain a Class “G” license that entails 28 hours of state-mandated classes plus a 48-round firearms qualification course.
