Crime prevention courses

Hijack Prevention course

This course has been designed with two objectives, firstly to highly reduce the risk of ever being hijacked and secondly to reduce the risk of loosing your life during a hijacking.

The course is both theoretical and practical; the practical element consists of training at your vehicle where you will be taken through hijack simulations. Issues dealt with would be if you were on your own in the vehicle, if you have children with you, how do you keep the children calm, how do you keep the hijackers calm, how do you reduce the risk of disaster, etc. The course is run in a manner that it is entertaining and light hearted as not to create paranoia. An essential element of the training is that it is facilitated by a trauma counsellor who understands the sensitivity around the topic.

TEAM BUILDING – This is a life changing course

For a long time now in South Africa team building events have all had the same theme: Become very physical, run around, get excited and get teams to work together. The problem however is that this does very little to change the mindset of the participants.

The time has come for traditional team building to change from the physical nature they consist of, to a high in pact session of; understanding people, emotions and what contributes to the difference in the way we all react to different situations.

This one day course will alter your life and also your team in a way that will increase productivity, reduce conflict, higher levels of responsibility and inspire a personal love for life.
