Training


Martin D Cooper Consultants offer a broad portfolio of bespoke professional courses for Police & Law-Enforcement, Professional Security and Corporate & Civilian Clients.
 
The majority of our training takes place in the United Kingdom at various locations throughout the country.  We also hold training courses in various European Countries.

Police & Law-Enforcement

Training delivered by Martin D Cooper Consultants is easy for both individuals and an organisation to integrate into present police training and is compliant with the personal safety manuals and conflict & use of force guidance approved/recognised by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) and the Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland (ACPOS).

Our unique system of training covers conflict theory, unarmed tactics, baton and firearms with excellent results.  It can be learnt and developed in just a few hours.  It provides core skills, easily acquired and easily utilised conflict tactics that will work practically; being impactive and effective but ensuring the appropriate use of force.

In one U.K. Police Force the methods we teach helped to halve the complaints against officers for their use of force within one year.  This reduction was halved again the year after demonstrating it suitability and fitness for purpose.

Professional Security

The private security industry continues to grow and the role of professional security officers within is becoming more and more diverse, disciplined and demanding.

Martin D Cooper Consultants provide tailor made training for persons working in Close Protection and related occupations.  Underpinned by the relevant tactics, methods and principals found in our law-enforcement training the security professional will learn and develop skills and knowledge to help perform their role more effectively.

Corporate & Civilian Clients

Our goal is to help ordinary people become safer in their daily life; by providing training and advice in self-protection.  We understand that for some people physical skills are beyond them, or they have no desire to pursue them.  It may be because of injury, illness or disability.   The methods we use are based on human behaviour – its strengths and weaknesses. 

Martin D Cooper Consultants offers training courses to individuals and corporate groups.  We have helped many people in the civilian world already; from lone workers to traffic wardens, women’s self-defence groups and health care workers, to business orientated people travelling abroad.
