Our training offering

Baton training

The safe, proportionate and effective use of the baton for authorities.

Our training program is based on a practical training program and is taught to police and prison service units. EBC was developed in accordance with the guidelines of authorities. It makes no difference whether you want to introduce the baton as operational equipment in your team, need retraining or use different batons. Only the interplay of equipment, operational tactics, operational technique and mission objective makes teams so efficient.

Laser pistol training

The innovative, safe and effective training for weapon carriers and authorities.

You too can take advantage of the many benefits of this training pistol in combination with our training programs for learning shooting techniques at close range, weapon protection and the safe handling of firearms in general. Only the interplay of both elements, CLOSE COMBAT combined with SHOOTING TRAINING, gives you real approaches and opportunities to expand your practice and your training.

Duty-related self-protection program

We developed this self-protection program for personnel in the security sector who are exposed to an increased likelihood of threats. As a participant, you learn to respond appropriately to violence and assaults. What is special about this course is that it incorporates your own equipment, which is intended to help you apply the right self-protection strategy under stress – taking the mandate into account. In addition, this training also covers content such as: approach, safe withdrawal, control techniques, switching operational equipment and much more! On request, the program can also be tailored to and supplemented for the particular needs of the client.

Frequently asked questions

Which authorities do we address with SAMI-X PRO?

Judicial and correctional authorities, financial police (Finanzpolizei), customs, police or police special units, as well as all other officers and personnel entrusted with security tasks, alone and in a team.

SAMI-X PRO has different formats, which are chosen depending on the needs of the users: seminars for authorities, usually as a one-day training session; training series that run over several days for specific professional groups; short workshops of 2–4 hours that cover a specific topic; and intensive training programs that usually run over 3 days with a total of around 18.5 hours. To become truly proficient and keep improving in the application of the techniques, it is advisable to attend an intensive seminar once a year.

The costs vary depending on how long the respective training session lasts. We endeavor to offer members of authorities a reduction of around 20% on our usual prices. Training seminars in a three-day format currently cost 440 € at full price (as of May 2024 – subject to change)

SAMI-X Pro is an adaptable system that can be individually tailored to the needs of specific professional groups or teams. On request, we will work with you to determine which training, to what extent and on which topics, best suits your needs.  

Yes, we are particularly proud of this! Drawing on our many years of experience, we have developed a comprehensive online support system for authorities. Over the last 10 years, we have created a way to present all techniques and content in the form of videos, which also serves to support operational trainers. Existing operational techniques can also be integrated into it. The content is presented and structured individually according to needs and requirements. Access to these resources is restricted exclusively to operational trainers or officers of the respective authority. A major advantage of this system is the ability to access the content anywhere and immediately, which enables flexible and effective support for the authorities.

Yes, that is definitely possible! One of the options for authorities is to have multipliers trained. All instructor and multiplier training is tailored specifically to the needs of the respective authority. Among other things, this includes the legal framework, the duration of training, the training objectives, equipment, operational tactics and team strength. Our training programs are individually adapted to ensure that they are precisely aligned with the requirements and objectives of the authority.

For us, the safety of our participants is the top priority. We therefore attach great importance to taking comprehensive safety precautions during training. This includes the use of protective equipment and the exclusive use of training weapons. We ensure that all participants can train under safe conditions in order to avoid injuries and create a productive learning environment.

 Cost coverage by the authority depends on the respective authority and department. Authorities receive a special authority discount from us. In some cases, the costs are reimbursed afterwards by the employer; in this case, participants receive the invoice for reimbursement. For group rates and further information on cost coverage by the authority, please contact us directly.
