SSI has been taking teams of First Responders, security professionals, and law enforcement personnel to Israel for over a decade and remains the only private US Company offering this form of high-demand, frontline security training. The unique program is performed in cooperation with more than 50 agencies and has been funded in part by the US Department of Homeland Security.
Participants in the upcoming mission will receive in-depth training by various security professionals who combat terror threats on a daily basis as well as having the chance to explore the unique cultural and historical landscape of Israel. Some of the mission highlights and topics covered will include:
Ports and Airports - tour and learn about some of the world's most complex security arrangements including a visit to Israel's Olympic Village
Critical Infrastructure - tour the Ashdod Power Plant and learn about defenses against Kasam Missiles that are being constantly being fired from Gaza
University and Schools
Government buildings - visit Israel's legislature "The Knesset"
VIP Protection - review lessons learned from the 1995 Rabin Assassination
Suicide Terror - visit sites of past terrorist incidents and speak with public security officials
VBIED's
Personal Protection - active Krav Maga training (an Israeli Martial Art and Close Combat Discipline)
Additionally, participants will experience some of the best dining and accommodations Israel has to offer. Optional tours are available for visiting Israel's Holy sites including a guided tour through Jerusalem's Old City, lunch at the Sea of Galilee and dinner near Mt. Tabor.
SSI CEO Solomon Bradman comments, "We are leading the way, making a difference together with a very dedicated group of First Responders? [who] consider themselves a cadre of people ready to fight the war on terror? all very inspired after seeing what Israel has achieved." He continues, "Because we give them a hands-on experience, and no-one else has the connections to do this? all our visits are really with the heads of security of wherever we are visiting?"
A past mission delegate recalls, "The training we received was very well balanced as to the many facets of security concerns that the police and private security have to deal with on a daily basis. It was invaluable to learn how the military, law enforcement and private security agencies cooperate and work toward a common goal." - Lieutenant Colonel Richard Wheeler, Commander Strategic Planning, Maryland DoT
