New Course:
Personal Safety & Security with Radio
Communications and First Aid
This training course is designed to equip humanitarian field workers with skills to prevent and correctly respond to security and safety threats.
The course combines the usual Safety and Security training but goes further by adding First Aid and Radio Communications modules so that field workers have all the tools necessary to deliver humanitarian programmes in an insecure environment.
Travel Safety Courses
Personal Security for Business Travellers, Aid Workers & GAP year students
Travel is so much a part of life these days. Whether for business or pleasure people are travelling to many different parts of the world. Travel can be a rich and rewarding experience as you discover the culture and cuisine of foreign places. It can also be a painful and frightening experience if the traveller is unprepared for the potential dangers that exist, especially in the developing world.
These courses are derived from the decades of experience that John Jacobs Consulting trainers bring to the arena of insecure and hostile environment training.
