hey is there any certifications for being a personal body guard or perhaps certified training to go through.
I hear military service pays you for training.
There are 3 major governmental/military providers of protective services in the United States:
Getting the training in the military (read: at the government's expense!) through the MP, CID, etc. PS courses is a great way to attain these skills. Depending on your background and interest in serving out of country, Blackwater's high risk PSD are the closest to military operations. However, please be aware that Iraq is discontinuing all contracts with Blackwater and the other companies contracts there for HR PSD are coming to an end. The HR PSD work is moving to Mexico and to anti-piracy assignments.
