New and Improved Executive Protection Schools E-Book

Over 20 of the Top Executive Protection Schools in the World

EP Schools e-book GraphicTo be successful in most fields you have to have some type of formalized or specialized education under your belt in order to teach you both the basic and advanced skills needed to succeed in a specific job. Whether that job is an auto mechanic, a draftsmen or accountant, those entering into the field of Executive Protection are also required to have some type of formal and advanced training.

Training is a component of Executive Protection that has changed significantly over the past 25 years. There was a time when any large, physically-fit man with an intimidating presence was employed as a Bodyguard—or as is politically correct in 2010—Executive Protection Specialist. This simply is no longer the case. Today, men and women both are working in the field, and training is considered key to succeeding in the field, and physical strength, endurance and agility are only part of the EPS equation.

In many cases you will have an extremely hard time finding employment, either with a team or as an individual without a formalized education. It is also important to remember that as an Executive Protection Specialist you have to continue on your path for excellence. Just because you graduated from the ABC school of Executive Protection does not mean that your education is complete. It is imperative for you to constantly continue to learn; the old saying “knowledge is power” is true. The more bodyguard training you have the better off you will be and the more successful you will have in the EP industry.

In the interest of providing our visitors with the best information available to succeed in this business, Bodyguard Careers has prepared the Top Executive Protection School list. Brief descriptions of each bodyguard schools are included. Please be sure to visit them to learn firsthand how they can be of help to you. I look forward to sharing in your success.

Sincerely

Harlan (Hucky) Austin


What People are Saying about Top Executive Protection Schools

Hucky,

I just wanted to show my appreciation for your book. I was recently the victim of a well-known scam organization out there that is preying on individuals like myself. My only regret is, I wish I had your book 4 months ago.

Ted, OK

Hucky,

Your e-book has been extremely insightful and helpful. It’s nice to get the thoughts of a true professional, and not someone that is trying to get me to pay thousands of dollars to go to their school.

Pat, CA

Hucky,

I applaud you on putting together a list of legitimate executive protection schools, and making them available in your e-book. This e-book is a must read for anyone seeking acceptable executive protection schools.

Carl, GA

Feedback from Executive Protection School Owners

Icon Services Corporation

“Here’s the thing I like about Harlan Austin, he understands the business. However, unlike so many from the “old school” he doesn’t horde information, instead he shares it. Let’s face it, our industry has a reputation for being pretty tight-lipped and while OPSEC (Operational Security) is a great practice, if we close too many doors, how do people just starting out ever get in? When Harlan told me about my inclusion in the previously edition of his “Top Executive Protection Schools”, based off of the uniqueness of our Celebrity & VIP Protection Course, I was delighted. Not only because I was in it, but rather because I encounter so many people who are attempting to do this work with little or no training, primarily because they don’t know where to go to get it. My recommendation to those interested in our industry–buy the book. The $19.95 invested here may save you thousands elsewhere.”

Elijah J. Shaw, CEO

Dignitary Protection Group LLC

Bodyguard Observation Skills

By Doc Rogers

The objective of this article is to provide you with a thorough understanding of observation skills necessary to protect your clients from assassination, armed assault, and kidnapping, or… stubbing a toe. The rule in all bodyguard observations is to provide 360 degrees of protection at all times. You must do everything first class, never complacent or lax; keep focused, attacks or accidents can happen in a matter of seconds. As a bodyguard you must be actively aware of everything that is going on around you and your client.

Remain Alert:

Remain alert to counter and reduce threats by individuals, groups, global terrorists and other adversaries to your client and at events; being consciously attuned to any specific threats in the area.

Executive Security

By Bruce Alexander

A past issue of Forbes magazine’s online edition has a must read article entitled “High-Security, High-End Homes” (http://www.forbes.com/2007/03/28/secure-tech-homes-

forbeslife-cx_mw_0329securehomes_print.html).
The article, written by Matt Woolsey, offers a glimpse into high end  executive security features in the homes of some of the rich and famous.

There is a series of pictures accompanying the article of these super luxurious residences that boast equally superior security features. The photo tour of the various residences is entertaining but does not (as it should) provide specifics of the security features associated with each residence. However there’s more than a few interesting tidbits in the article. Take for example, the description of One Hyde Park, the luxury London homes purported to be the most expensive in the world at $165 million each. There are four penthouses at One Hyde Park each equipped with filtered air, bullet resistant windows and iris scanners (presumably so your latch-key kid living here doesn’t have to worry about losing his/her key anymore).

Female Bodyguards

By Doug Belton

She stands tall, trim, and confident.  She is tastefully adorned in practical attire that is both attractive and functional.  Her pants allow her ample room to move and stretch.  Her shoes, while stylish, are comfortable, and able to support her through a grueling crucible of physical exercise that could come at a moments notice. 

She is all beautiful and all business, her attractiveness is beyond aesthetics, and her business acumen takes her around the world, rubbing shoulders with the business, entertainment, sports, and political elite.  She is part of a growing breed of female bodyguards.

As a new cop back in the early 90’s I learned an important lesson.  There were two ways to get through a night shift.  A cop can either fight their way through one incident after another, chasing bad guys through dark alleys and buildings.
