Close Protection
The World renowned 21 Day Vanquish Close Protection Course is considered one of the best civilian bodyguard courses that exist. It not only covers the basic minimum SIA Level 3 BTEC requirements to enable attendees to ascertain their SIA licence.
This course demonstrates how to be an effective CPO whilst utilising covert surveillance skills and gives attendees the ability to protect by exercising intelligence acquisition methods along with traditional security skills and procedures.
From this course, you will gain your PCO Chauffeur Licence, SIA CP Licence, a Diploma in Advance Surveillance, Bug Sweeping (TSCM) and the First Aid At Work Qualification
Advanced Surveillance
The 5 Day Advanced Surveillance Course was initially written to train current security staff of Vanquish Security to enable them to conduct covert surveillance ops to the high standards set out by the company.
Word spread quickly and before we knew it, Vanquish had set up a special training division, later to become Vanquish Training Academy, to take on all applicants who wanted to attend the highly demanding course.
Michael Chandler who wrote the course, later went on to publish The Real Guide to Surveillance which sells to aspiring security & surveillance operatives World Wide.
Although Michael has stepped down as course instructor, people still come from all over the globe to attend.
