Q - If I have done a PSD course and I've just finished a tour in Iraq and         about to finish the army. Does this course can help me to integrate           my self, to the field of security at the business and private sector in          the world?

A - Indeed there is a difference between the PSD work and the Close/Executive

      protection work. An agent in the High risk zone of PSD, operates very

      differently from what the Close/Executive protection agent operates in

      public or private sector and area (with out relating to the personal risk factor

      of the VIP). It comes from 3 main reasons;

      1. From the adversary point of view and his opportunities and means of an

          attack.

    2. The expectation of the VIP from the service he as acquired. Which always

        reflects strongly on the nature of the relationship between the Agent and

        the VIP.

    3. The difference in the filed of operation between the Executives/Close

        protection service area to the PSD (Combat / War environment) service    

        area.

        The course touches these exact subjects as well, because we know that at

        the end of it, the Executive / close protection agent is providing a service,

        and this service should fit the market perfectly and not to a different   

        environment.
