Wonderful experience being trained by…

"Wonderful experience being trained by Ben McCarty. He knows his job very well. Give us the trainees opportunities to express ourselves, ask questions and respond to them accordingly. But he is sometimes too fast with words that some of us who are not English native speakers sometimes find it a little difficult to follow along. But he’s a great trainer."

Completed the DS Top up course with Get licensed and passed. Adame who trained us was great, very professional and down to earth guy. Even though he’s had various jobs and years of experience in security he just treats you like a equal, no better than anyone attitude which is good. Professional training by trainers who WANT you to pass not a back street company. Will be definitely back again for further training. Thank you.

Surveillance detection is a series of covert procedures and tactics that are designed and implemented in order to confirm or deny whether there is hostile surveillance of a principal, place or event.

Counter reconnaissance is the measure taken to prevent an enemy's reconnaissance.

This course is designed to teach students primarily with a close protection background how to protect their Principal against sophisticated threats through anti and counter surveillance.

The main aim of this course is to teach all fundamentals of professional detection and countering surveillance tactics, techniques and procedures. To equip students with overt and covert techniques as well as enhancing existing skills and procedures, to a level that allows independent operation.
And lastly, to train and select suitable candidates to work both independently as AZTEC operators as well as part of integrated operations with additional team members and external agencies

By the end of the course you will be able to carry out sophisticated 'overt' and 'covert' drills to either evade, deter or gather intelligence on the most sophisticated of surveillance teams.

This four-day course teaches the skill sets required to operate as a sophisticated counter surveillance team. In order to fully appreciate 'what to look for' it also teaches the basic understanding of how a surveillance team operates. Students completing this course receive a certificate of completion.
