An extremely professional and well delivered course. Completed my CP course, FREC 4, FPOS 3, MIRA and HECPO course in one month long course. Every single instructor was a credit to the organisation bringing a huge depth of knowledge and personal experiences to their lessons. Every single one of them was approachable throughout to help with any information we were struggling to understand. The real estate used for training was vast and impressive using venues from the centre itself to the local town and out to Glasgow city. Finally once complete the company has been helpful in collecting our CVs and sending them to potential employers and arranging interviews for people. Would highly recommend this organisation!

CP course completed. Brilliant course from start to finish, well structured and extremely well delivered by Chris Kirkbride. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to move into the close protection world. Highly informative, quality facilities and equipment. After researching numerous companies I definitely made the right decision choosing Horizon. Big thanks to Chris and Horizon, I'll no doubt be back for CPD in the future. More...

I have just completed the Close Protection course with horizon and what can I say?

The Admin:
Staff are efficient and polite and very professional team

The instructor:
His experience and skill level is exceptional he teaches you everything you need and more, after our live final exercise with a real time VIP we had some amazing comments which in my eyes shows that we was trained to a true reflection of his own skills and ability.

The course:
I kind of went into this course believeing it to be just another course, how wrong was I!!!!
From the offset your constantly bombarded with vital information, you then go into the hostile phase which was hard work but as close as you can get to the real thing, after the hostile you begin the executive phase. Whilst all this is going on you have Physical Training most mornings.

The accommodation:
It's perfect single rooms kitchen areas gym everything you need to live comfortable.

Summary:
If you want to go on a course that you can just hide at the back and get a pass, Dont waste your money, this course will test you both mentally and physically. Your trained by experts within the curcuit they know what is required from teams and they know how to get the best out of you.
I would highly recommend anyone to complete the course. I'm proud to place them on my CV and feel like I have made a great acheivment by completeing the course

Well done Paul and the team !!!! 10/10

If your looking to get a loaded and informative CP course, with relevant instructor knowledge, then Horizon are market leaders.
I've successfully completed CP &FPOS for my employer as I'm already engaged in a RST contract, it's where to come to further or start your security ambitions.
My only negative feedback is perhaps the ongoing renovations whilst using the small kitchen with a large course. That said, if your a busy company your limited to when you can achieve things like this.
It's pertinent, realistic and professionally run.
If you seek employ after the course Horizon is a good place to start with provenance from the SIA itself.
This course is recognised by the industry and will use Horizon to glean good operatives....�

Just finished my close protection and fpos(I) course with Horizon, the instructors were top class and very knowledgeable in every aspect of the cp world. I feel confident and more than ready to now move into the close protection industry in both executive and hostile. The facilities this company has are second to none and the structure of the course is everything you need. All the staff have a great rapore with the students and are willing to help at anytime. After the course they still continue to help with networking, possible further courses and just general advice. The Medical facilities were great, and the medics where great with getting everyone to interact,with lots of hands on which I personally feel is most important. I would highly recommend Horizon to anyone who wants to have a successful and positive start to the Close Protection and medical industry. I would like to thank the horizon team for the experience and qualifications gained from this course. More...

I recently attended an FPOS I and MIRA course bundle. Not only was the course bundle excellent value for money, but the quality of training provided from Rab McEwan (FPOS I) and Tom Johnston (FPOS I and MIRA) was incredibly in depth and went above and beyond the level of knowledge required in order to ensure all students fully understood the physiology behind treatment methods. This isn’t your average 9am-5pm course with the odd early finish on some days, every day is crammed with theory lessons and in depth hands on practical lessons and assessments. I’m looking forward going back to complete my FREC courses next! More...

I'm real happy to have been part of the last CQC course held in Bulgaria, can't give anything but the best to Horizon and Neil Davies for the awesome job they're doing. Have learned an immense amount in a short time, met new friends, acquired skills which would've taken weeks and months on end to develop proficiency in - all I can say is keep it up guys, will definitely be coming back soon!

I recently participated in the close protection and FPOS first aid course provided by Horizon ltd and Guardian-srm.

It was a both comprehensive and compressed course with a lot of learning material to cover.

Looking back we covered all the essentials needed to get a basic knowledge of all the disciplines involved in close protection and quite well indeed.

We had different instructors during the course, but the main instructor
was Robert McEwan of Horizon ltd.

Mr. McEwan is a laid back guy with a lot of field experience in close protection, risk management and operations in hostile environments.

His previous time in the Scottish Infantry, the security industry and subsequently instructor was a huge benefit throughout the course.

The course was split into theory, practice and physical training, all well adjusted. We started out simple and went into more advanced training and everyday many new learning points was added to the curve.

Overall an excellent course which provided me with a solid foundation to build upon.

Fantastic. Just successfully completed the July 2017 Close Protection Course at Horizon and it totally exceeded all of my expectations. I have been on countless firearms course in my previous life but this is by far the most informative, intensive and rewarding.

If you're after a nice cosy sit down Course where you're guaranteed a pass for your CP ticket then this is NOT the course for you. This course is tough, mentally as well as physically. There are no "beastings" the staff are professionals and treat you as adults.
The instructors and course content were fantastic and it was very intense (your head will hurt). The instructors know their craft in depth and it's a privilege to learn from them. Cliche I know but you will also learn a great deal about yourself.
Our CP course was 16 long days without a break, it is non stop and it was a fantastic experience.
Your course culminates with a 36 hour final exercise (in Glasgow city centre!) and if at the end you are fortunate enough to pass then you will have earned it. There are no give aways.
If you think you have the "Right Stuff" then go for the Horizon Course. You will not be disappointed.

An outstanding course with great facilities and scenarios. The course spends minimal time in the classroom and concentrates on real life scenarios and training. The instructors Neil and Chris deliver the lessons diligently and with great passion for the subject. The final exercise in the Glasgow area is outstanding and puts the skills you have learnt over the past two weeks into practice. I would recommend the horizon CP course for anyone wanting to get employment within the close protection world be it hostile environment or executive. More...

Came here 4 weeks a go and I’m leaving today with my qualification and a job. It is by far the best training environment I’ve ever been in. The quality of the instructors from CP/Surveillance and Medical are second to none. The centre not only trains you but actively helps, or employs you. People from all walks of life attend the course and everybody leaves this centre at the same high standard. If you are leaving the Forces it’s definitely the place to conduct your training. I’m more than happy for anybody about to leave the Forces to contact me with any questions. Thanks again Horizon. More...
