My Occupational Defense is taught by safety consultants with first-hand experience in security administration and the medical field.
We understand that every industry has its own unique problems, and every workplace has its own kind of environment. Because of this, no one type of training can nor should be used across all sectors. The unique approach of My Occupational Defense looks at all angles, taking into consideration your workplace culture, staff members and goals.
Our modules for healthcare providers give students working knowledge of defensive strategies that can be applied immediately.
