Overview of the Certificate Course

Ronin™SA seeks to train holistic Close Protection officers in the fullest sense of the word. We are of the view that to finalise your Close Protection Training you should be able to protect your client from a range of medical and traumatic emergencies.

We see our CP Medical Assistant Certificate as a path to realising a real-world ability to intervene on behalf of your client in a meaningful way - far in excess of typical first aid training required for security licensing around the world.

It is also of use to any civilian who is undertaking wilderness, adventures or merely travelling to remote areas or countries without good civilian medical infrastructure .e.g. ex-pats, yachtsman, press corps etc.

The spectrum of skills and abilities taught on this program have been set at Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine Framework (PHEM) skills framework descriptor level E.
