Bulwark Professional Services, LLC provides preparedness training focused on preventing workplace violence.
Utilizing reality based scenarios, the company excels in identifying work environment vulnerabilities and managing the associated risks. Participants are exposed to various options and techniques that provide personal protection alternatives. The training is grounded in the concept of managing risk through intuitive empowerment. Bulwark Professional Services, LLC also conducts individual threat and related investigations as well as workplace vulnerability assessments.

Courses are designed for specific industries and are presented under the general program category of the “Managing Peril” series.  The program is designed to educate attendees on how to recognize situations, activities, or behaviors that may lead to direct confrontation or violence. The intent is to provide the client with a custom fit for their business or industry as it pertains to the potential for workplace violence.  The “Managing Peril” series does not teach hands-on self-defense.

Individualized modules are designed for each industry in order to specifically address vulnerabilities and risks, but all rely on “intuitive empowerment” as a core component.   Each module addresses a specific topic, but can stand alone as an individual course.  This then allows for shorter but multiple training sessions over a period of time.   Normally each module is 90 minutes to two hours, but may be lengthened to provide more detailed personalized training.  Depending on the number and composition of the modules as well as the number of attendees, it may be prudent to combine the content into a half or full day seminar.
