Why choose the Anubis Close Protection Course?
Our growing success is fuelled by the Private Security Industry recognising value in the Anubis brand. As more of our successful graduates work in the CP sector the high quality of our course is reflected in the work that they undertake. We maintain strong working relationships
with many of the main security providers in the industry, and in return they actively seek out Anubis students which ensures that our course is increasingly in demand.
Our CP Course is run by qualified professionals for professionals to qualify. With this at the forefront of our business ethos we pay attention not just to the high quality standard of teaching but also to the accommodation and training facilities we provide. As a residential
student you will have full use of our state of the art training facilities and on-site bespoke classrooms in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. The quality of the residential package is hardly reflected in the extra cost and it will be as memorable as the training course itself.
