Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT)

When you have teams traveling to hostile, remote, or challenging safety environments, your duty of care includes providing your people with the knowledge and skills they need to understand, evaluate, and mitigate risks. Facing security challenges, natural hazards, or significant differences in cultural and legal norms, building individual resilience helps your organization operate in higher-risk environments with greater confidence and effectiveness.

Immersive outdoor HEAT facilities

Spanning 85 acres, our design-built HEAT training facility in Virginia has a capacity of 250 participants and can imitate multiple environments including refugee camps, a local village, a UN or military base, and militia checkpoints.

Simulation-based indoor training center

Utilize our state-of-the-art training center for simulation-based learning, including an active shooter hotel room or office space scenario.

Organization-specific HEAT training delivered on-site

Having delivered Hostile Environment Awareness Training to over 6,000 participants in 75 countries, our training can be seamlessly adapted to reflect your needs and deployed on-site.
