3-Day HEAT (Personal Field Security Training) – Bangkok, Thailand

Our 3-day HEAT course – also known as Personal Field Security Training or PFST – will be conducted in English.

For whom?
This training course is intended for local and international professionals in the development, human rights and environmental protection sectors, working in a hostile environment (with uncertain security).

Why join a 3-day HEAT/PFST?
Our training format aims to strengthen the preparation and awareness of people working or preparing to work in disrupted environments, providing the participants with the knowledge and tools to anticipate and react to threats in their areas of work. Through a participatory approach, the pedagogical team ensures that participants thoroughly develop their knowledge and skills.

Our HEAT and PFST programs are very similar in content and objectives. The ‘PFST’ is a shorter-form but fully certified 3-day program, whilst the term ‘HEAT’ refers to a longer and more involved training program of 5 days which includes some additional specific teaching (esp. more advanced First Aid sessions) as well as additional certificates.

What is the content?

Principles of personal security
First aid / Trauma
Communication
Effects of weapons
Sexual violence
Mines, UXO and IED
Safety and security in premises
Security and Access Management
Stress management
Hibernation, relocalisation and evacuation

Why choose Other Solutions Consulting?
We bring together local and international trainers with complementary backgrounds (humanitarian sector, private sector, armed forces), all highly qualified and fully certified.

Our PFST program has been designed and evaluated by experienced trainers who come primarily from the sectors we daily work with (development aid, human rights, environmental protection, journalism, etc.).

Our PFST program uses a combination of theory and practice (respectively 30% and 70% of the sessions), including simulations that place participants in realistic situations to implement what they have learned in the theoretical modules. This type of “immersive” experience provides an essential added pedagogical value and has been extensively studied and developed in the social sciences.

What certification will the participants receive?
You will receive two internationally recognised certificates, a badge of competence and an OSC certificate of participation.

EFR (Emergency First Response) certificate.
Stop The Bleed certificate for the First Aid course.
The HPass badge.
Certificate of participation issued by OTHER SOLUTIONS.

How long does the training last?
3 days, from 8am to 5pm
