Testimonials
The instructor has been nothing but top class from start to finish. He used his vast experience/knowledge to give a greater depth to each module that went way beyond the SIA requirements. The method of teaching ensured that we not only understood what was required of us, but that we were able to show and prove it to the instructor as well.
Daniel Griffiths
Well run course provided by experienced ex military instructors who make the course engaging, interesting and fun while imparting useful advice.
Anthony Remson
I attended the course with a view to deployment to hostile environments later on in the year, and can safely say that I have gone from knowing nothing to feeling confident and prepared to operate safely and efficiently in challenging environments. I cannot recommend BMG and their HEFAT course highly enough!
