Been looking for legitimate contractor/executive protection schools for a long time, and someone brought up ESI during our class.

So far, I've only heard one negative about it, and its from someone that has no experience within the protection field.

Anyone train or have any experience with this institute? If its legit, gonna switch my degree plan with the VA because this is what I was looking to do when I got out. That, and my current degree plan sucks fat A-hole.

P.S. Chris, that PSD course looks extremely onolicious.

Yeah man, they seem to have "good" reviews.  That said, it still seems like EMT is one of the best ways to get into the PSD field.  I was looking very strongly at going to ESI for their Corporate Security; I wanted to do the PSD program as well, but I needed boots on ground time.  I still really want to do PSD work, or just go work overseas in general.

I think they tried calling me back to give me more info.

This is exactly what I was looking for, but with so many people trying to bank off the G.I. bill these days, it'can be hard knowing who is legit and who is just trying to make the quick buck. So far, they are proving to be legit.

Gonna give them a call next week and find out the details and requirements. If it goes smooth, I'll probably switch institutions and enroll in the corporate security course.

If that's what you are looking for, I would also strongly look at medical and trying to qualify as a paramedic.
