STUDENT TESTIMONIAL: Johnathan Cawley-CPC 1701 “I just had the pleasure of attending an Executive CP course with Excellentia. It was hard work and at times there was just the right amount of pressure applied to test you. You receive guidance and training over and above what is required to gain your SIA licence through realistic, current and relevant training, delivered by active CP professionals. Their knowledge and experience is priceless and openly shared throughout the course. By the time you get to the last week you feel like you're on the job and have earned the qualification. On completion of the course they keep in touch and support your journey into the industry. You are not just the holder of a badge but a well-trained part of the Excellentia family. I highly recommend training with Excellentia.”

EXCELLENTIA LONDON ORIENTATION COURSE
'' The course was very informative and was very useful to see exactly where all the top hotels, restaurants, shops, nightclubs are. I would thoroughly recommend it for those whom have little knowledge of London and even if you do know London it’s always good to network and was lucky to have met a good bunch of guys Thank you Excellentia'' – CF “I would and will recommend this to everyone, even to people who live in London. Even picked up tips and advice about other aspects of CP work” – SK. "I attended the London orientation with Excellentia on Saturday 13th December 2014. I have been in the security industry a number of years and can say that this day was an eye opener to working within the UK and predominantly the London circuit. John was not only very knowledgeable but very accommodating to all backgrounds within the group. There is certainly a misconception that you must be ex-military to work in the industry. With the right training, character and contacts there is work. I highly recommend speaking with Excellentia, I'm not a former student but the day was set right to enable me to progress onto the London circuit. Never stop learning never stop networking. Thanks to John and the group for an enjoyable day." – KD I was hugely impressed by the quality of training provided, it was by far the best course I have attended. The instructors/trainers were extremely passionate about what they do and their professionalism was second to none. The quality of teaching and delivery was to such a high standard that it made a demanding course enjoyable to take part in. – AE

EXCELLENCE THROUGH EXPERIENCE
STUDENT "I chose Excellentia on recommendation, having researched course providers. The training provided is top quality: meticulously planned and provided by genuine experts. Importantly, the instructors were supportive, engaging and dedicated to passing on professional and ethical values of which they are rightly proud" – CPC 1601
“After reviewing many different companies that were offering to provide the BTEC in close protection. I was informed of Excellentia Ltd after doing some research this company appeared very highly recommend. I was nervous prior to engaging with the training staff after an initial call all smokescreen and illusions were removed due to the professional manner in which I was handled.”– CPC 1601
“I attended this course after, having it recommended to me by a number of people, people I know personally and from social network forums. After doing some research on the company, and talking to JM, director of the company I realised this course was the right one to attend. From the start of the course meeting the DS I knew immediately I had made the right decision. All the DS came across friendly and were more than happy to answer any questions we had. For those who are looking for a realistic, professional course this is the one. Excellentia are a well established operational company. Make no mistake about it you will not regret attending this course. “ – CPC 1601
TESTIMONIALS “I would like to say thank you for taking the time to offer us a free tour and information package regarding the London circuit. I found it to be very interesting and was well presented by yourself. For someone trying to break into the London market it was a nice stepping stone and also a great day to meet fellow contractors” – KP "As a former Excellentia Close Protection student, I knew exactly what to expect from this one day London orientation course. I was met with the same level professionalism and extensive operational knowledge as I had seen during the Close Protection course, which reminded me exactly why I had chosen Excellentia as a training provider." – GL “Even though I'm from London I still found it very informative and was great to hear first-hand accounts from a experienced operator like yourself For anyone trying to break into the London circuit your course is a must.” – RH I attended the Excellentia London orienteering course to brush up on my London knowledge and to meet like minded professionals. The day was very well run and very informative. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to work in London as it will give you a working knowledge of the important parts of the capital." - MM
STUDENT I attended Excellentia's 21 day CP course in September 2014, what a course, never worked so hard in my life! 15 hours days and the trainers are so committed to get you through. Since I successfully completed the course I've been hired on numerous occasions and building up that all important credibility and connections which is so important in this industry. Cannot recommend them enough!!
2014 CLOSE PROTECTION STUDENT
The Excellentia course is a fantastic course. The location of the course is worth the fee alone! But when you add into the equation the knowledge, professionalism and passion for standards then this training provider come into their own!
DP SECURITY MANAGER
TESTIMONIALS I found the pre-course support to be second to none. Any questions or admin I needed help with (such as my Army resettlement docs), I found Excellentia to be very helpful and quick to respond. When I arrived at the course I was fully aware of what to expect due to their well-structured joining instructions so no surprises there. The course is designed to meet the needs of the SIA requirements, as every course should do, but I found that Excellentia went above and beyond those requirements every time. They took their time making sure each student fully understood what was being asked of them and if some of the students struggled with the lessons, the instructors were on hand late at night assisting them. I can't recommend this course enough, if you want to work in the UK, then London should be on your list as that's where most of the clients live/visit. Excellentia provide that knowledge as you conduct your training on the streets of London on foot, vehicle and even on the underground. To summarise, the support before and during the course was great and as I have only just discovered the support doesn't stop there as I am now loaded onto their contact list and receive job opportunities from them via email often. I won't stop recommending them as I have no regrets in choosing this company as a training provider, these guys love their industry and will NOT give a pass to anyone who does not meet their grade (as I witnessed first-hand). Thank you Excellentia for such a well run course.
Leaving the forces? ‌ We can help SC - CLOSE PROTECTION STUDENT
STUDENT Being a total novice to the close protection industry I sought advice from many different sources as to what training provider to use in order to obtain the qualifications I required. One name kept coming up time and time again throughout my research, Excellentia. It was immediately apparent that their was a distinct difference between simply obtaining the qualifications required and actually being trained in the skill of close protection. I would consider the training staff at Excellentia in the latter; being concerned in training and preparing you for the industry, as well as ensuring you have the correct qualifications to work as a close protection operative. The classes were genuinely enjoyable and enlightening and were presented by professional individuals that clearly have a passion for what they are teaching. There is a distinct feeling of eagerness from the trainers to impart their first hand and varied experiences on the students with an enthusiasm, which is almost contagious. Coming to the course with no previous close protection experience, the practical elements were a real eye-opener. Even though we were working 14 hour days the practical scenarios still made it feel like their weren't enough hours in the day. They were enjoyable, for-filling and rewarding. They left me feeling I had been given a genuine insight into the day-to-day workings of a close protection team. I would recommend Excellentia as a training company to anybody who wishes to obtain an all-encompassing knowledge of close protection, both theoretical and practical. In particular those individuals that see themselves working in the Executive Close Protection market in one of the major financial capitals around the world. I can't thank the staff at Excellentia for the energy and conviction they showed throughout the duration of the course installing the knowledge in me I need in order to succeed within this industry.

TESTIMONIALS The course was very informative and was very useful to see exactly where all the top hotels, restaurants, shops, nightclubs are. I would thoroughly recommend it for those whom have little knowledge of London and even if you do know London it’s always good to network and was lucky to have met a good bunch of guys .Thank you Excellentia. CF- LONDON FAMILIARISATION COURSE
I spent a long time deciding on which company to choose to conduct my level 3 Close Protection Training. Excellentia Limited came highly recommended and immediately from initial contact I recognised I had made the right choice. From day one Excellentia provided a very unique and bespoke course. The most distinguishing feature of the course was the opportunity to be immersed into real-time, real-life scenarios which were set-up with absolute attention to detail in high pressure situations conducted in the heart of the City of London. Due to this level of realism, Excellentia instilled the confidence and assertiveness required to be an effective CPO and I believe they go above and beyond with regards to content, delivery and application. Instructors showed the highest levels of professionalism, dedication and passion which in turn inspired me to perform to the best of my abilities and adopt those qualities. It is clearly identifiable that Excellentia provide a course built to provide candidates with the highest standards of training and is certainly not an attendance course. To summarise, the course far surpassed all expectations I had; and if asked for a recommendation Excellentia would undoubtedly be top of my list.
CLOSE PROTECTION COURSE STUDENT
The delivery of the training was second to none. Having completed quite a few military and civilian courses I have experienced many levels of training quality. The course and the instructors had a perfect balance of seriousness, professionalism and humour. The content and course material was over and above my expectations. Their ability to give real life examples of all the learning objectives (and then some) through the instructors combined experience made the transition from lesson to 'real life' an easy understanding. I highly recommend Excellentia to anyone and everyone"
