What Our Students Say
Hear from those who have completed this course
"What a ride. A truly mentally and physically demanding experience that delivered in so many ways. On 31st March along with 5 other initiates we started out on the very first delivery of The Ops Con's outstanding S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L Program. Today we crossed the finish line of the attendance phase of the program. Seven days of grafting, three classroom days each covering different aspects with a written 30+ question paper for each day, four days of practical scenarios and assessments on an MOD training area with lots of bangs and smoke. Now to finish off the course operational project to gain the Level 4 accreditation. This is a certification that has to be earned through hard work and effort and is not given. If you are looking to do Media or NGO Backwatch in hostile, High risk or austere environments, THIS IS THE COURSE TO DO. Thanks to Lee Brett for great instruction and realistic scenarios based on his recent operational experience from across the worlds most dangerous places. Thanks also to Sam for the insight into todays Drone threat. Lastly thanks to The Ops Con for bringing this course to life and my fellow initiates"
