SecuriStart is the premier educational division of the Safe and Secure Group.

Founded in 2014 by Bernard Martinage — former bodyguard, renowned hospitality and security educator, and founder of the Federation of Dining Room Professionals — SecuriStart has grown rapidly into a trusted name in professional security training.

In today’s environment, rising crime, political violence, riots, mass stabbings, arson, and other threats have changed the landscape of personal safety. With law enforcement agencies stretched thin and judicial systems overburdened, relying solely on external protection is no longer sufficient.

The most reliable defense is knowledge and preparation. That is why we created the Personal Protection Specialist Course — the same foundational training used by tens of thousands of professional security officers who graduate through our programs each year.

Whether you are a business owner, retail or hospitality professional, executive, or concerned citizen, this comprehensive course equips you with practical, proven strategies to assess risks, prevent incidents, and respond effectively when seconds count.

Take control of your safety and the safety of those you protect. Enroll today.
