Since surveillance is a practical subject we try not to subject students to ‘death by PowerPoint’. Lecture-based teaching is combined with a range of other techniques, including instructor demonstrations, student discussions and practical exercises in our simulation centre, urban environments and rural training facility. The course culminates in a two-day final operation exercise, which typically encompasses a large geographic area.
We also provide a violent assault workshop as part of the course, where ex-forces medics deliver training specifically geared to the threats and injuries most likely to be encountered by surveillance operatives.
Our two week course is charged at a set fee of £1700.00 plus VAT (total cost £1997.50). We are an approved supplier for Enhanced Learning Credits with a supplier number of ELC 2990. The course is non-residential and therefore does not include food or accommodation.
