During this time he has managed multiple protective operations in more than 30 countries around the world.

Our training facilities are administrated by the ISA Academy®. The “BTP Course” was originally designed for International Security Agency trainees only, but to the great demand we decided to open the academy to the public in 1995.

Several tests will be administrated in all areas to monitor the progress of each attendee.
