LAW ENFORCEMENT
PROTECTIVE SERVICE TRAINING PROGRAM (LE-PSTP)

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

​​​​​

The Law Enforcement–Protective Service Training Program (LE-PSTP) is delivered as a five-day course in Protective Service Operations shaped by federal protective doctrine and instructed by a cadre of experienced professionals drawn from backgrounds that include former U.S. Secret Service personnel, former DHS and federal law enforcement instructors, military special operations veterans, and active or former SWAT officers.

 

Grounded in federal best practices and taught through a structured crawl–walk–run methodology, the program integrates classroom instruction with hands-on practical drills and scenario-based exercises. Training culminates in a comprehensive Field Training Exercise (FTX) that challenges participants to apply threat recognition, protective movement, and real-time operational decision-making in realistic environments.

 

​Graduates earn 40 ASIS-approved CPE credits and receive a WSG Professional Certificate, providing dual recognition that validates skills, supports ASIS recertification, and enhances professional credibility across the law enforcement and security community.
