A bodyguard is a person who protects someone from personal assault, kidnapping, assassination, loss of confidential information, or other threats. Bodyguards are typically armed and have expertise in unarmed combat, tactical driving, and first aid. However, the most important skill for a bodyguard to possess is the ability to assess a situation and decide how best to respond to minimize danger to his client. Most important public figures are protected by several bodyguards. Lower risk principals are generally accompanied by a single bodyguard, who may double as the principal's driver. Higher profile celebrities, billionaires, or at-risk dignitaries usually require a detail 2 to 4 of personal protection officers.

This course will teach you the concepts of personal protection, dignitary protection, executive protection, and celebrity protection.
