 SSI, the first private US company to take Law Enforcement, First Responders, Security Professionals and Key decision-makers to Israel for real, frontline training is the ONLY COMPANY that has succeeded in taking 11 groups to Israel.
The reason:
 The SSI program is not based on what we think you need to know. We base ourselves on the more than 50 different agency suggestions and more than 100 participants - more participants than State agencies, professional associations and other non-profits have managed.
The US Department of Homeland Security has given funding to the SSI trip - to the best of our knowledge the only trip to qualify by a private company.
SSI's Training in Israel has been attended by Police, Sheriffs, Emergency Management, Transportation, Fire, Joint Terrorism Task Forces, State Law Enforcement Agencies, Fortune 500 companies, DHS and many more. All of them say this training is the very best they have ever received.
The training is focused on the most important areas of Homeland Security training:
Public Safety: large scale events, shopping and retail, public transportation
Ports and Airports
Critical Infrastructure
University and Schools
Government buildings
VIP Protection
Suicide Terror
VBIED's
Please contact us for up-to-date information about SSI's exact program in Israel. We continue to evolve and improve the program based on the detailed feedback we receive from our participants. You may use the Information request or Register directly.
