Is a free comprehensive manual put together by old friend Robin Barratt.

Robin was kind enough to ask me to contribute two articles for the manual. Security Driving and Secure Transportation and my favorite, Certification and Experience

Robin has also published “How To Find Work as a Close Protection Specialist 2014–15 Directory”. It is a listof 1000 service providers, trainers and support services to individuals and companies within the industry. You can download them free of charge
