SUMMARY:Executive Protection Studies Program/ South Carolina 2026
DESCRIPTION:Executive Protection Specialist Course\nJuly 2026/Greenville\, South Carolina\nHosted by Fortis\nSeven-Day Executive Protection Training | Up to 84 Hours | Standards-Based | Practical | Professionally Defensible \nMost executive protection courses promise a certificate. But executive protection skills are not learned by collecting a certificate. They are developed through realistic\, standards-based training and evaluated performance.  \nTraining that teaches students to think\, plan\, communicate\, operate\, move\, and perform under real protective conditions. \nThe ISA Dignitary & Executive Protection Specialist Program prepares law enforcement\, public safety\, corporate security\, and private security/protective personnel to plan\, support\, and conduct protective operations for public officials\, candidates\, executives\, high-profile individuals\, and other persons designated as at risk. \nStudents train in the core skills that matter during real protective work: threat assessment\, advance work\, mission planning\, protection-in-depth\, secure movement\, public-event security\, communications\, emergency action planning\, medical response\, legal considerations\, and capstone performance. \nThis is not a short bodyguard seminar. This is a structured executive protection training program designed for today’s public- and private-sector threat environment. \nRegister Now https://www.eptraining.us/training-registration/ \nReview Syllabus: https://www.eptraining.us/executive-protection-training-courses-master-list/dignitary-and-executive-protection-specialist-course/ \nRequest Group or Agency Tuition Information: info@eptraining.us \n\nWhy Attend This Program\nChoose ISA when you need more than a certificate of attendance. \nThis program is designed for students and agencies that need accredited/state approved training they can explain\, document\, and defend. The course combines classroom instruction\, facilitated discussion\, hands-on practical exercises\, field application\, medical training\, legal & ethics training\, and a live capstone evaluation. \nISA’s advantage is simple: students are not just introduced to executive protection terms. They are trained to think through the protective mission from threat assessment to movement\, from advance work to emergency action planning\, and from professional conduct to capstone performance. \nWhat makes this course different \n\nStandards-based training built around protective-operations doctrine\, public-sector requirements\, and private-sector needs\nLaw-enforcement and corporate-security relevance for students protecting officials\, executives\, candidates\, VIPs\, and other at-risk persons\nThreat-driven mission planning instead of isolated tactics or disconnected drills\nPractical exercises and field application throughout the training week\nMedical certification training included for CPR\, AED\, Stop the Bleed\, and basic first aid\nCapstone performance evaluation requiring students to apply planning\, communication\, movement\, and decision-making skills\nState licensing and continuing education value for eligible students\, depending on jurisdiction and agency requirements\n\n\nProgram at a Glance\nCourse: Dignitary & Executive Protection Specialist Program\nProgram: Executive Protection Studies Program\nHost: Fortis\nLength: Seven days\nTraining Hours: Up to 84 hours\nFormat: Classroom instruction\, facilitated discussion\, hands-on exercises\, field training\, and capstone evaluation\nPrimary Audience: Law enforcement\, public safety\, military\, veterans\, private security\, corporate security\, investigators\, and protective-service personnel\nPrimary Outcome: Students learn to support or conduct protective operations in a lawful\, professional\, threat-informed\, and mission-focused manner. \nTraining highlights \n27 course categories\n100+ course learning objectives\n120+ terminal learning objectives\nPractical exercises and facilitated discussions\nLive capstone exercise\nWritten examination\nCPR\, AED\, Stop the Bleed\, and basic first aid training \n\nBuilt for Today’s Threat Environment\nProtective operations have changed. \nPublic officials\, judges\, candidates\, corporate executives\, healthcare leaders\, high-net-worth individuals\, and other public-facing persons face a more complex threat environment than ever before. Threats may involve political violence\, stalking\, workplace violence\, public-event vulnerability\, hostile surveillance\, online exposure\, targeted attacks\, and rapidly changing information. \nISA’s program was originally developed after the 2011 attempted assassination of U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords for law enforcement personnel assigned to dignitary and executive protection responsibilities. Since then\, the syllabus has continued to evolve based on lessons from public-figure attacks\, public-event security failures\, corporate-security concerns\, and current protective-operations challenges. \nThe course is built around one central question: \nCan the student help plan\, support\, and conduct a protective mission safely\, lawfully\, professionally\, and effectively? \n\nWho Should Attend\nLaw Enforcement and Public Safety\nThis course is designed for officers\, deputies\, troopers\, corrections personnel\, campus police\, court security personnel\, and public safety professionals assigned to\, preparing for\, or supporting protective responsibilities for the protection of: \nElected & Public officials\nJudges and court officials\nCandidates for office\nVisiting dignitaries\nHigh-risk private-sector /corporate executives\, CEOs/CFOs\, individuals and families \n\nFederal\, State\, Law Enforcement\, Military\, and Veteran Transition Training\nThis program is especially valuable for federal\, state\, and local law enforcement personnel\, military personnel\, and veterans who are preparing to move into private-sector executive protection\, corporate security\, investigative\, or protective-service roles. \nMany public-sector professionals and veterans already have some similar experience or understanding of executive protection. However\, private-sector executive protection requires additional skills that are not always taught in traditional law enforcement or military training. \nStudents learn how to adapt their existing experience to the private protection environment\, including client service\, corporate culture\, legal and regulatory boundaries\, private-sector liability\, discreet movement\, advance work\, protective intelligence\, business etiquette\, residential and office security\, public-event planning\, and communication with executives\, family offices\, corporate security teams\, venue management\, and private clients. \nFor law enforcement personnel\, the course helps translate public official protection\, dignitary visits\, court security\, special events\, and protective assignments into a structured executive protection model. \nFor military personnel and veterans\, the course helps bridge the gap between military security operations and private-sector protective work\, where professionalism\, judgment\, discretion\, planning\, and client-centered communication are as important as tactical skill. \nThe goal is to help experienced public-service professionals become licensed\, prepared\, and professionally effective in the executive protection and corporate security industry. \n\nPrivate Security and Corporate Security\nThis course is appropriate for private security\, corporate security\, investigators\, and protective personnel who support or conduct protection for: \nCorporate executives\nHealthcare\, banking\, technology\, legal\, and public-facing leaders\nHigh-net-worth individuals\nPublic figures\nCandidates and speakers\nEvent principals\nPrivate clients operating in elevated-risk environments \n\nThe program is especially valuable for students who need to understand the difference between unstructured “bodyguard” work and professional protective operations. \n\n\nWhat Students Will Train To Do\nStudents will be introduced to the mission\, structure\, language\, and professional standards of executive protection. Training areas include: \nThreat Assessment and Protective Intelligence: \n Students learn how protective operations begin before the detail moves. The course introduces threat identification\, information collection\, risk evaluation\, and the use of actionable intelligence to support protective planning. \nMission Planning and Risk Mitigation: \nStudents learn how protective teams convert threat information\, itinerary requirements\, venue conditions\, principal needs\, and available resources into a workable protective plan. \nAdvance Work and Site Surveys: \nStudents learn how advance work supports safer movement\, better communication\, informed decision-making\, emergency planning\, and coordination with venue personnel\, law enforcement\, security\, transportation\, and other stakeholders. \nProtection-in-Depth: Students are introduced to layered protection methodology used to reduce exposure\, manage access\, identify vulnerabilities\, and support safer operations in public and private environments. \nSecure Movement\, Arrivals\, and Departures:\nStudents learn the planning considerations involved in secure transportation\, route selection\, vehicle coordination\, staging\, arrivals\, departures\, and principal transfer points. \nPublic Events and Protective Movement:\nStudents receive instruction in movement principles\, escort procedures\, public-event considerations\, red-carpet-style movement\, crowd concerns\, static-site operations\, and emergency action planning. \nCommunications and Team Coordination:\nStudents learn the importance of clear communication\, interpersonal skill\, leadership\, briefing\, debriefing\, coordination\, and disciplined team behavior during protective operations. \nMedical Response:\nThe course includes CPR\, AED\, Stop the Bleed\, and basic first aid training. Protective personnel must be able to recognize a medical emergency\, begin immediate lifesaving care\, communicate clearly\, and support transfer of care to responding medical professionals. \nLegal\, Ethical\, and Professional Standards:\nStudents are introduced to legal considerations\, use-of-force awareness\, professional conduct\, ethics\, client relations\, agency coordination\, and the importance of operating within applicable law\, regulation\, policy\, and professional boundaries. \n\nCredentials\, Licensing\, and Professional Recognition\nEligible graduates may meet or support requirements associated with executive protection\, personal protection specialist training\, law-enforcement in-service training\, state licensing\, or continuing education credit depending on student status\, agency\, jurisdiction\, and current regulatory requirements. \nThe ISA Dignitary and Executive Protection Program has been submitted for third-party audit and validation to law enforcement agencies\, private sector EP programs\, and educational institutions for state accreditation. The program has been approved\, accepted\, recognized\, or submitted for review by multiple law enforcement\, state regulatory\, and professional organizations for training or documentation purposes. \nRelevant agencies and organizations may include: \n \nMaryland Police and Correctional Training Commissions\nVirginia Department of Criminal Justice Services\nSouth Carolina Criminal Justice Academy & North Carolina PPSB \nGeorgia & North Dakota POST \nState Licensing: \n** Graduates meet the Virginia DCJS PPS Credentials and North Carolina EP license requirements\, and may also receive 12 CEUs.  Students should confirm current licensing\, continuing education\, agency\, and state-specific requirements before enrollment. Eligibility\, documentation\, and recognition may vary by jurisdiction\, agency\, employer\, license type\, and student status.\n \n\n IFPO Endorsed Training\nThe ISA Dignitary & Executive Protection Specialist Program is endorsed by the International Foundation for Protection Officers\, supporting ISA’s commitment to professional training\, ethical protective practice\, and career development for protection officers\, security professionals\, law enforcement\, military veterans\, and private-sector executive protection personnel. \n\nExecutive Protection Training and Capstone Evaluation\n \n \n \n Executive protection cannot be learned through lecture alone. Students should expect a demanding training week that includes classroom instruction\, facilitated discussion\, group assignments\, hands-on exercises\, field application\, and a capstone evaluation. \nThe training environment is designed to require students to think\, communicate\, plan\, adapt\, and perform under realistic time constraints and changing mission conditions. Students must participate professionally\, contribute to group work\, complete assigned tasks\, and meet the standards established for the course. \n\nCore Training Topics\nThe program includes instruction and practical application in: \n\n\n\nExecutive protection fundamentals\nThreat assessment & Protective intelligence and open-source research\nMission planning and risk mitigation\nAdvance work and site surveys\nHostile surveillance and countermeasures\nConflict resolution and de-escalation\, hostile person/crowd & emergency procedures\nProtective communications\nClose protection techniques\, team leadership and standard operating procedures\nPhysical security\, Home/office & public-events\nSecure transportation and movement operations\nArrivals and departures\, ground/interior movement/formations\nOff-site and off-the-record operations\nProtective security ethics/ law and legal considerations\nTerrorism and active-threat awareness\nCPR\, AED\, Stop the Bleed\, and basic first aid\nCapstone protective operations exercise\n\n\n\n\nExecutive Protection Training: Tuition\nTuition: Seven-day Program\nStandard Tuition: $2\,300.00\nLodging is not included. \nGroup Tuition Options\nNon-LE/Military Group rate savings: \nGroup of 4: $1\,300.00 per student a $1000.00 savings  \nGroup of 3: $1\,500.00 per student an $800.00 savings  \nA team of 2: $1\,800.00 per student a $500.00 savings \n  \nSpecial veteran and law enforcement tuition rate $1\,150.00 \nAdditional group rates available.
