Designed for personal protection specialists, close protection agents, security drivers, bodyguards, chauffeurs, and everyone who seeks to elevate their driving skills, gain knowledge and experience.
DRIVING + PROTECTION + ETIQUETTE
The only training that properly blends all three.
Our highly experienced instructors share their wealth of knowledge, drawing on decades of experience to provide students with the necessary tools to accomplish our challenging exercises and navigate real-world scenarios.
2 FULL DAYS OF 100% HANDS-ON TRAINING BEHIND THE WHEEL
Our revolutionary approach gives you a solid foundation of the hard and soft skills necessary for effective and proficient protection driving regardless of your background.
Industry leaders and EP gurus alike have often held on to the belief that you cannot drive and provide protection at the same time. EPI acknowledges the reality that many EP professionals MUST successfully drive and protect their principal.
Upon completion of this program, graduates drive away with a comprehensive and versatile set of skills. Not only will they be able to overcome potentially dangerous (evasive/tactical driving) situations, but also thrive in everyday (concierge/precision driving) situations.
Exercises include multiple braking methods and advanced vehicle operation to master critical driving techniques and accident-avoidance skills. Students will learn arrival and departure techniques through unique exercises that highlight smooth, controlled navigation as well as precision driving and vehicle placement.
The Protection Driving Program (PDP) concludes with a technically advanced and realistic skid control exercise, complemented by a comprehensive and challenging combined skills exercise which replicates all the previous days of training.
EPI is also dedicated to developing and delivering custom programs for all your personal and client needs. We have a history of providing custom programs all over the world and can also provide any of our established courses at your preferred location to facilitate your logistical needs.
