What the EPS Track Covers
Protective Detail Operations
Formations, positioning, and movement - solo details and team details, on foot and in vehicles, in crowds and controlled venues.
Advance Work & Route Planning
Site surveys, arrival and departure choreography, choke-point identification, and contingency planning before the client ever arrives.
Threat Assessment
Read people, patterns, and environments. Learn to identify hostile surveillance and pre-attack indicators before they become attacks.
Close Combat Defensive Tactics
Franck's CCDS applied to protective work - weapon retention, third-party protection, and controlling threats while covering a principal.
Emergency Extraction
When it goes wrong: cover-and-evacuate drills, vehicle work, and moving a principal through a hostile environment to safety.
Professional Conduct & Client Relations
The soft skills that keep you employed - protocol, discretion, dress, communication, and working alongside estates, EAs, and venue security.
Taught From the Field
Learn From Someone Still Doing the Job
Most EP courses are taught by people who left the industry years ago. Franck is an active elite executive protection specialist and fugitive apprehension agent - the tactics you learn are the ones being used on details right now.
