TRAINING DATES 2008

Certified Protection & Intelligence Specialist, CP&IS

The Personal Protection & Intelligence Resident Program is an integrated academic and practical training curriculum consisting of the three Modules that total 675 hour/74-Days of Resident Classroom training.Each Module can be taken as stand-alone Certificate Programs as a specialty or as an integrated comprehensive program.

The first Module is a 250 hour/28-Day course in executive, dignitary and celebrity security; the second Module consist of 250 hour/28-Day course in Special Operations for high risk protective operations in Combat Zones; and the third Module is a 175 hour/18-Day course in Protective Intelligence . The Resident Program can be taken in sequence or as separate modules.

The Resident Program is an intelligence based protection program with a special emphasis on preparing protection specialists to operate in corporate, celebrity and close personal protection in international and domestic venues. The program also incorporates civil police and military protocols in the principles of personal protection in high risk combat zones, including third world environments of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Bosnia. The career objective of this training is to prepare the ESI graduate for a professional occupation in close protection agent in a wide range of security requirements.

ESI's hallmark as a training academy in protection is its emphasis on Operational Intelligence as the basis of comprehensive personal and corporate security. In its incipient first decade, ESI placed an inordinate focus on Reactive Skills: protective formations, evasive driving, martial arts and shooting. As ESI enters its third decade of training, we continue to believe in the importance of well honed martial skills, but ESI shifted its training philosophy to Pre-Emptive Intervention skills with an emphasis on Behavioral, Predictive and Proactive Intelligence. Our second Core Program: Protective Intelligence & Investigation deepens and broadens the protective agent's training in higher levels of personal and corporate security. ESI's core philosophy is that these skills are indispensable to any protection program, and is what distinguishes a Protection Specialist from a Bodyguard. Moreover, it is what distinguishes ESI from practically every other training organization in the world.

The Certificate of Completion is awarded without regard to Grade Point Average or performance. The student may enter the program and complete the three Modules in two and a half months of classroom academic and practical training or take each Module separately at different time periods that fit their schedule. Should a student choose to take the Modules separately, they are only charged for the component in which they are enrolled, not the entire program. (If the student is a graduate of an ESI program or equivalent course, academic and financial credit will be evaluated, and the student will receive a tuition offset.)
