Do you require further training? Are you looking to provide the members of your team with the necessary close protection skills? Then call Orchid Risk today on 01202 692 250 and enquire about our hostile environment close protection course. Delivered by industry certified professionals, these courses will supply you with the practical knowledge necessary to keep you and your client safe.
If you truly wish to excel, you must possess the skills and knowledge to enable you to perform your role to the best of your ability. As a hostile environment close protection officer (HECPO), you will
frequently find yourself in high-risk situations where quick-thinking is required to keep everyone safe. Here at Orchid Risk, we have built our hostile environment close protection course around this fundamental principle.
Not only will you be taught how to identify and evaluate potential threats, but you will also learn the correct techniques to deal with these scenarios quickly and effectively. Our hostile environment close protection courses are fully accredited with relevant governing bodies and delivered by industry certified professionals. Each course will last for two days, and in that time, your abilities will be continually tested across a wide range of practical exercises.
Throughout the hostile environment close protection course, you will be taught to develop your weapons proficiency, live firing competencies and knowledge of protection procedures. Our instructors will also teach you the correct emergency response procedures as well as how to correctly prepare and support any HECP operation. Over the two days, you will study more than a dozen core modules and become proficient in areas such as:

At Orchid Risk, we also provide the SIA Level 3 Close Protection and First Person on Scene certifications. These can be taken separately, together and can even be combined with our hostile environment close protection courses.
This course lasts for 12 days and is a requirement for any individual looking to work within the security sector. As with our hostile environment close protection course, the SIA Level 3 course is delivered by certified instructors, many of whom possess Special Forces and elite law enforcement backgrounds. If combined with the HECP course, firearms training can also be included.
While you hope that you will never need to put these skills into practice, the FPOS qualification ensures that you are prepared should an emergency arise. From performing triage safely and effectively to administering CPR, managing the scene and maintaining the casualty’s airway, you’ll receive the training necessary to keep someone alive until the paramedics arrive.
If you’re looking to take the hostile environment close protection course and wish to be ready for every possible scenario, then the FPOS course is for you.
