Courses & Seminars:
Whynacht Security & Survival offers a
growing list of courses and seminars, all based on one overriding
philosophy - Knowledge is Power.
The military axiom of, “As ye train, so shall ye fight,”
applies whether the “enemy” is a life threatening adversary, a
wilderness emergency, or a burst water pipe in a snow storm in
February that promises to significantly damage your property if not
promptly dealt with. Problems requiring immediate action to ensure a
desirable outcome are never solved by simply accepting one’s
vulnerability and resigning to the hope that it will happen to
somebody else. Neither does the adoption of the “911 mindset” in the
expectation that the immediate solution to any emergency is just a
phone call away represent a reliably effective alternative.
Events, here and abroad, highlight one vital fact: THE STABILITY OF
LIFE IS NOT GUARANTEED!
Whatever the endeavour – be it work, travel, recreation, or just
daily living – problem solving skills are essential to confidently
and unflinchingly meet the vagaries of life. Our ancestors
understood that, often with little or no warning, the community, the
family, or sometimes the one, could be called upon to overcome the
unimaginable. We now live in an age where instant access to
information, assistance, and, in the gravest extreme, salvation is
not only anticipated, but expected.
Our training approach recognizes the need; even the responsibility;
for each individual to step out of the “911 mindset” and, to the
best of his or her ability, undertake to obtain education in the
practical skills necessary to SELF RELIANCE. To build a mental tool
kit of competence that, as long as we breathe, will always be at
hand against the day when help is not just a phone call away, and
flight is not an option.
Those interested in any of the programmes listed here are asked to
get in contact with us for
further details.
PERSONAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PROGRAMMES:
PERSONAL EMERGENCY PLANS &
PROCEDURES
Governments and corporations practice emergency planning to
prevent emergencies from turning into disaster. Students of this
course learn how to bring professional level emergency
management planning and response techniques to bear in their own
lives and homes employing principles of threat assessment,
elements of the Incident Command System (ICS), and other tools
to maximize their personal resources in managing the things that
can and do go terribly wrong. Fire, intruders, weather, fuel
leaks, plumbing gone bad, electrical hazards. Helping emergency
responders help you. The strengths and weaknesses of the Nova
Scotian 911 system. They’re all here and more.
Students will leave this course with a well crafted and
personally tailored emergency preparedness plan and the skills
to keep it updated. While useful for anyone, this course is of
particular interest to young families and the recently widowed.

PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMMES:
FIRE ALARM TECHNOLOGY SEMINAR FOR THE FIRE SERVICE
No member of any fire service can operate very long without
responding to an automatically generated alarm; in short, a fire
alarm is going off. This seminar runs approximately two and a
half to three hours and is specifically designed to provide
members of the Fire Service with a basic comprehension of fire
alarm systems as they may relate to their own area of
operations. Seminars are tailored to specific departments in
order to reflect actual examples from within their own
operational area. Seminars have historically been conducted in a Department’s
normally scheduled training interval, which for most volunteer
Departments, is an evening. This programme is administered as a
PUBLIC SERVICE so actual cost of the preparation and training
time is ZERO. Depending on the geographic location of your
Department, we may ask that our travel, lodging, and meals be
covered.
Training Officers of interested Departments are invited to call
or write for a copy of the basic syllabus, and a quotation of
any costs that may apply.
FIRST RESPONDERS - MANAGING THE PROTECTIVE CANINE
“The disposition of noble dogs is to be gentle with people they
know and the opposite with those they don’t know.” -- Plato
Your Paramedic Unit has arrived at the scene of a 911 call – an
elderly male with chest pain. The door is locked so you have to
force entry. The patient lives alone – except for someone nobody
mentioned. Butch; a normally sweet and lovable but now
frightened and suspicious Rottweiler who centuries of canine
evolution has equipped to feel duty bound to stand between his
obviously distressed master and a bunch of rude, unknown
intruders of questionable intent.
Butch doesn’t know your motives, nor that his defense may cost
his master his life, and you don’t have time to make friends
with him before getting to work. The patient is incapacitated
but conscious and alert and is registering everything that
happens.
What to do? We’ll teach your crew. This programme is limited to
members of approved first response agencies. Call or write for a
copy of the basic syllabus and a quotation of course cost.
Please provide the number of interested members in your
organization and desired training venue.
