Overview

 
 

a 4-day bespoke course mixing classroom training, Virtual Reality, and In Real Life simulation (HEAT Equivalent)

A sector-leading 4-day course, delivered via traditional classroom training, VR scenarios and complex, established real life scenarios, tailored to the threat exposure of the client. The course is delivered at a residential facility in Kettering, Northamptonshire using experienced trainers supported by a team of actors for the simulations and state of the art VR equipment with VR scenarios embedded into the learning experience. Trauma first Aid training and scenarios are included - in the event of a serious incident in a high-risk location, a basic understanding of trauma first aid saves lives.
