Executive protection isn’t just about stopping threats.
It’s about buying time, making decisions under pressure, and keeping a principal alive until definitive care.

That’s why EFAR (Executive First Aid Responder) – ISSA exists.

In the executive environment, medical incidents rarely look “tactical”.

They look like:
- sudden collapse in a hotel lobby
- road traffic incident during movement
- acute medical emergencies (cardiac, respiratory, anaphylaxis)
- uncontrolled bleeding from accidents or trauma.

EFAR trains operators to:
• assess fast and accurately
• manage life-threatening bleeding and airway risks
• stabilize casualties in transit environments (vehicles, venues, airports)
• coordinate comms, evacuation, and handover to EMS
• stay professional, calm, clear, and effective.

Because in real operations, seconds matter and preparation wins.

If you work in executive security, or you lead teams that do EFAR is not “nice to have”.
It’s a standard.

DM “EFAR” for course dates & details.

CLOSE PROTECTION OPERATOR — 14-DAY INTENSIVE PROGRAM | FEBRUARY 2026
Forge Security Group introduces the most advanced Close Protection training in Europe. A 14-day selection designed for professionals operating in Executive & VIP Protection.
This program is built on the core pillars of modern protection: professionalism, preparation, planning. Not a “bodyguard” course. A transformation into an Operator capable of functioning at international standard.

Students will develop operational mindset, threat anticipation and planning discipline. Modules include Roles & Responsibilities of a CPO, Threat & Risk Assessment, Operational Planning, Route Selection, Venue Security, Reconnaissance, Surveillance Awareness, Foot Tactics, Vehicle Tactics and Embus/Debus, Incident Management, Decision-Making Under Stress, Protocol & Etiquette, communications, SOPs and integration with local authorities. Every unit is measured on real-world output.

New standards: ISSA Executive Range Protocols (ERP). We reject sport or military range habits. We teach Executive Protection shooting: strict safety, target prioritization, timing windows, VIP shielding, realistic reloads, cover—not staged barricades. No “points.” Survival, continuity, responsibility.
Our ERP methodology forces observation, decision and ex*****on under compressed time frames. Operators learn to move the Principal before themselves.

For over 15 years, Forge has operated globally with governments, agencies, corporations and high-profile clientele. Our doctrine is built on real experience across Europe, USA, Middle East and Asia. We train discipline, composure, communication, team interoperability. Certification is earned, not requested.

Target: professional operators, former military or LE, corporate security personnel, PPOs, RST, security managers seeking international standards.
Only one seats. February 2026.
