Private security

Train to evolve, understand to protect!

In a world where threats evolve faster than procedures can keep up, security must go beyond the mere execution of instructions. It requires deep understanding, analytical thinking, and the ability to adapt continuously.

For companies and institutions, training teams to become true field experts, rather than basic task performers, is a strategic investment.

Risks, Emergencies, Crises and Threats – Essential Concepts for Field Managers

In today’s ever-evolving security landscape, private security companies can no longer rely solely on reactive approaches. With growing client expectations and increasingly complex responsibilities, it is vital to equip field and operational managers with a solid understanding of risks, emergencies, crises, and threats, not only to react appropriately, but to anticipate and lead effectively.

This one-day training module, designed by OPSMAN based on real-world case studies, is specifically tailored for team leaders, site supervisors, and field coordinators. It provides essential foundations for risk analysis and incident management, shifting participants from a “task execution” mindset to a more proactive, structured, and decision-oriented approach.

The module is divided into two parts:

  • 3 hours of applied theory, covering core concepts (risk typologies, alert levels, assessment tools, crisis chains of command, communication posture).
  • 4 hours of hands-on practice, including scenario-based exercises inspired by real operational challenges (e.g., intrusions, strikes, terrorist threats, service disruptions).

Key objectives:

  • Strengthen participants’ ability to detect weak signals early.
  • Improve autonomous decision-making under degraded conditions.
  • Enhance coordination and reporting during critical events.
  • Prepare your teams to act quickly, appropriately, and methodically when it matters most.

Empowering your operational managers means strengthening the credibility and added value of your company. It also reduces legal exposure, improves client confidence, and contributes to the long-term professionalisation of the private security sector.

EVENT SECURITY: UNDERSTAND TO MANAGE BETTER!  

OPSMAN offers a one-day training programme designed for team leaders, operational managers, and experienced officers in the private security sector who are required to operate at institutional or protocol-related events.


This training immerses participants in the specific requirements of such events: protocol, VIP management, image control, political communication… all critical dimensions that must be mastered to deliver a security service that meets the expectations of high-level organisers.

A day structured in two parts:

  • 5 hours of applied theory, to understand the foundations of institutional events: categories of participants, political stakes, protocol interactions, and the expected behaviour of security personnel.
  • 3 hours of practical application, based on real-life scenarios encountered by OPSMAN, to translate the morning’s insights into concrete actions and sharpen decision-making in high-pressure environments.

Operating at institutional events requires more than a uniform and a badge. It calls for situational awareness, refined interpersonal skills, and the ability to act without disturbing the delicate balance of protocol.

This training enables your teams to:

  • Deepen their professional expertise in a high-value segment.
  • Adapt posture and reactivity to institutional environments.
  • Strengthen your company’s image with demanding clients.

For over 15 years, OPSMAN has supported private security players in enhancing their professionalism and ability to meet the demands of sensitive, official or institutional events.
This training is fully aligned with that mission: equipping your teams with real, useful, and valuable skills.

Training Management in Operational Excellence: A Strategic Lever for Security Companies

OPSMAN offers a training course designed specifically for executives and managers in the private security sector, with the goal of placing operational excellence at the core of their service model. Too often reduced to a logic of mere presence, security companies must now demonstrate their ability to deliver tangible, measurable results in the field.

This training addresses all key levers of effective management: understanding the client’s actual needs, developing an internal charter of excellence, defining mission-appropriate profiles, quality recruitment, structured supervision, and performance monitoring tools. Through OPSMAN’s real-world experience, participants will learn how to transform their organization into a true security expertise partner, standing out in a market where many competitors compete on price rather than on added value.
