PSD – HECPO

The Hostile Environment Close Protection Operations (HECPO) course provides rigorous training tailored to the unique demands of high-risk environments, ranging from war-torn regions to areas grappling with civil unrest or significant terrorist threats. Beyond traditional close protection practices, this training anticipates the unpredictable, ensuring that participants are adept at adjusting their methods in response to the fluidity and unpredictability of these volatile contexts. The course curriculum is thorough, encompassing weapon training, heightened mine awareness, nuanced tactical movements both on foot and in vehicles, and strategies for extractions under hostile conditions. Practical drills, such as walking practices and anti-ambush vehicle maneuvers, further hone participants’ abilities to respond effectively to imminent threats.
