The sextant MFCC course offered by this outstanding training provider is among the most comprehensive and well-organized I've experienced regarding firearms proficiency. The instructors possess immense expertise, and the training and evaluations are both demanding and practical. I wholeheartedly recommend this course and plan to return for requalification in the future.

Exceptional, discreet and a top notch service

Sextant group offered me and my family a very discreet and empathetic security service at a family members funeral. He was high profile and we didn’t want paparazzi harassing us at such an emotional time.

The team supported us throughout the day and gave us privacy during the funeral.

I would recommend this company for any security needs you may have. They are polite professional and very experienced.

Great learning experience

The course package was great. Sextant did a good job to provide the complete learning experience; we had good tutors and plenty of practice to work with to bring us up to confidence. The course itself and all people involved with the course were absolutely great and I couldn't be happier that I took this particular course. I will recommend this to anyone who want to change or get their trade in security and close protection.
