ICON once again presents our  5 day course of practical theory and hands-on training in the world of Celebrity & VIP Protection.  Held September 8-12, 2010 in Minneapolis, MN the course  is an intensive mix of theory, drills and hands-on training.

The last class was sold out and with the new training modules introduced such as force-on-force, the time is perfect to attend as a start to a career in Executive Protection or refresh existing skills.

“I would like to thank you for the experience throughout the course. I walked away very satisfied. The field training exercise was amazing. Being able to use what I learned in a real life scenario was the best part of the training. The force on force was also great; learning to react to (a hostile) contact was done realistically”.
