Be ready for late-night CONOPS, physical exertion, and challenging situations. The course is designed to push you out of your comfort zone and into a realm of practical application.
Capabilities Exercise (CAPEX)
The training culminates in a capabilities exercise (CAPEX) and a consultant de-brief. In CAPEX, you will conduct a physical security assessment on an actual building, applying the skills and techniques learned throughout the course. This hands-on exercise is the pinnacle of the training, providing you with real-world experience and solidifying your learning.
Small Class Size
