High-Risk First Responder
Whether you are working in the U.S. or abroad, well-rounded medical training THREAT PROTECTION & CAREER—HIGH BUSINESS can be the difference between life and death. Many do not have the time to attend lengthy EMT or paramedic courses. This intensive six-day course gives students the most important skills that military medics, EMT, paramedics and remote medical practitioners use to provide emergency care in a variety of environments. This course focuses on serious wounds caused by gunshots, blasts, vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, and other life-threatening injuries that may be encountered in a military, law enforcement or high-risk security environment. Advanced labs are available for students who already have TCCC Provider certification and CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers certification. No prior medical training is required.

High-Threat Protection Specialist This course bridges the gap between conventional domestic protective operations and war-zone PSD work. This 19-day program will provide the training, knowledge, and skill sets to be a proficient protective team leader/member in all threat areas by focusing on one of the most challenging protective environments, the high-threat low-profile area of operations. Protecting a journalist in Beirut, a business executive in Mexico, or a humanitarian visiting a dangerous region in Africa, are all examples of high-threat low-profile environments you may find yourself assigned to. As an American citizen working a private protective detail on foreign soil, you may be working alone or in a very small team, generally will not be allowed to carry firearms, and will have to arrange all of your own local resources. These limitations highlight the need for a high level of training in specific skill sets. This unique program was designed by industry professionals who have drawn from their vast experiences in the field. Upon completion of this course, students will receive a Certificate of Accomplishment from MiraCosta College. Topics covered include: • Handgun shooting • Live fire, immediate action drills Fee: $6,875.

Manufacturing Machinist Technology Training Program Gone are the days of the grease-covered, conventional manufacturing machinist. Today’s machinist must be highly trained with very specific education and skills, working in high-tech manufacturing plants that are both clean and innovative. CNC machines, just-in-time production methods, lean manufacturing techniques, along with great housekeeping and state-of-the-art facilities give a more accurate picture of American manufacturing today. The need for properly trained machinists to fill hundreds of positions in North San Diego County has reached critical mass. To meet this need, we are proud to offer this program to individuals seeking a fast- paced, high-level training. Our program will prepare students for employment in machine shops and manufacturing facilities. Students who attend will experience an accelerated program that quickly prepares them to meet trade skill sets such as shop mathematics, metal properties, layout, precision measuring, machining procedures, tooling, and a basic understanding of both manual and CNC machining. Salaries for machinist technician apprentices range from $13–$16/ hour to start; however, many companies are hiring at $15–$18/hour with proper training and certifications provided by programs such as ours.

Questions About Tipping? Passengers often ask us if they should tip their driver and tour director. These customary gratuities are not included in the tour price, but highly encouraged (please do not tip guides Sharon Gaitan, Kristin Maccarrone or Linda Kurokawa).
Much like a restaurant, tipping is recognized as an appreciation for a job well done and motivation to exceed your expectations.
Industry guideline for tipping is $3–$5 per person, per day; however, any amount is appreciated and should be related to how you were served by each individual.
