RS Defense Group Training
RS Defense Group Training is built for professionals completing initial certification, annual renewal, or refresher courses. Every program emphasizes safety, compliance, and confident decision-making in real-world situations. Courses are clearly scheduled, easy to register for, and designed to make the certification process simple for both individuals and employers.
Training sessions run during the second and fourth week of each month, Monday through Friday. Each day represents a specific phase, with Day 1 covering Phase 1 and continuing sequentially through the week. Some participants complete the full multi-phase training, while others attend only the phase required for their role or certification.
